The 2002 Rolls-Royce Silver Seraph for buyers

No 2002 Rolls-Royce Silver Seraph 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. Here is what to know about the 2002 Rolls-Royce Silver Seraph before buying one.

A buyer's checks

In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.

Specs, explained

Its 5.4L 12-cylinder drives through a 5-speed automatic. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

At 18.1 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 54 litres of fuel. A 300 km weekend costs about $95.04 in energy at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$6,300 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

When the Silver Seraph makes sense

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.

What to expect from the Silver Seraph

Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. The EPA lists 340 litres for luggage, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

A longer test drive

Rent first, buy later: a week with the Silver Seraph answers the big questions. Rent the Silver Seraph first, and buy only if it fits your life. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.

Choosing the right one

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

What it costs to run

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $316.80 at our price setting. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular.
