Recalls and complaints

A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

What the specs mean

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

Who rents the VNM

It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

Space and size

As a car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight.

Rent it for a week first

A week with the VNM answers more than any brochure. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent the VNM for a week and see how it fits your life.

Choosing the right one

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Within the 2001 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.

The cost of driving it

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.

Still deciding?

Ask us anything about renting before you buy.

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 2001 Volvo VNM from us first.
