The 2012 Mazda 5 for buyers

No 2012 Mazda 5 is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. For anyone shopping for the 2012 Mazda 5, here are the facts that matter.

Recalls and complaints

NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

The figures, translated

Under the hood: the 2.5L 4-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

Combined fuel use is 9.8 L/100 km: about 29 litres for 300 km. A 300 km weekend costs about $45.57 in energy at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,800 a year for 15,000 miles.

Practical details

As a minivan, it puts space for people and luggage first.

Who rents the 5

It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

Rent it for a week first

Rent the 5 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Drive the 5 on your commute before you commit to it. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.

Running costs

Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.

Choosing the right one

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

Over to you

A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.

Rent it for a week before you buy
