Thinking of buying the 2004 Volvo VHD?
No 2004 Volvo VHD 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. Before buying the 2004 Volvo VHD, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
What to check on the VHD
A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Owners filed 3 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine and engine cooling, structure and visibility; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
Specs, explained
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
Room inside
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with.
Best uses
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
A longer test drive
A test week in the VHD tells you more than any review. If the VHD is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.
Running costs
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. 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.
Year and trim
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
