The 2002 Mazda B-Series for buyers

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2002 Mazda B-Series for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Buying the 2002 Mazda B-Series is a big decision; here is the information we have.

Recalls and complaints

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Owners filed 28 complaints with NHTSA, most often about air bags, power train and engine and engine cooling; have those parts checked.

What the specs mean

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

A good match for

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

Inside and out

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway.

Drive it on your own roads

Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Rent the B-Series for a week and see how it fits your life. If the B-Series is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.

Picking a year and a trim

Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.

Running costs

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. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.

Still deciding?

Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2002 Mazda B-Series from us first.
