Certified Pre-Owned: the 2004 Mazda MPV

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2004 Mazda MPV for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Before you buy the 2004 Mazda MPV, see the figures and the checks worth doing.

Before you sign for the MPV

Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. NHTSA has 71 owner complaints on file, mostly about engine and engine cooling, air bags and electrical system. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.

The figures, translated

It is powered by the 3.0L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

Rated at 13.1 L/100 km combined, it needs around 39 litres for a 300 km round trip. For 1,000 km, budget about $203.10 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,700 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Who it is for

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.

Inside and out

It is the kind of vehicle that makes a family trip calmer.

Rent it for a week first

Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Rent the MPV first, and buy only if it fits your life. Rent first, buy later: a week with the MPV answers the big questions.

Which one to look for

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

Running costs

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $203.10 at our price setting. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. The EPA estimates US$3,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Let us know

Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.

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 2004 Mazda MPV from us first.
