Car financing: the 2012 VPG MV-1

No 2012 VPG MV-1 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. The 2012 VPG MV-1 for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.

What to check on the MV-1

Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

The figures, translated

Under the hood: the 4.6L 8-cylinder and rear-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 52 litres, from its 17.2 L/100 km rating. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $26.66. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$4,000 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Best uses

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

What to expect from the MV-1

Being a van, it carries people and their bags without fuss.

Drive it on your own roads

If the MV-1 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. Rent the MV-1 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.

Narrowing it down

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. 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.

What it costs to run

Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. The EPA estimates US$4,000 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
