A buyer's checks

Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. 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.

What the figures tell you

Its 2.5L 4-cylinder drives through an 8-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 22 litres, from its 7.4 L/100 km rating. Driving 300 km costs roughly $34.41 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,100 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Room inside

As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. The EPA lists 396 litres for luggage, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

Rent it for a week first

If the Camry is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. A week with the Camry answers more than any brochure. Rent the Camry first, and buy only if it fits your life.

Running costs

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $114.70 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Year and trim

Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
