CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2002 Daewoo Lanos for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. We do not lease cars.

A buyer's checks
There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Owners filed 30 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine and engine cooling, air bags and service brakes; have those parts checked. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
Reading the spec sheet
Its powertrain is the 1.5L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
It is rated at 9.0 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 27 litres. Every 100 km costs about $13.95 in fuel at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,600 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
The Lanos in everyday use
Being a compact car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. Its 340 litre trunk is enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Good uses for the Lanos
It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
Rent it for a week first
Rent first, buy later: a week with the Lanos answers the big questions. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. A week with the Lanos answers more than any brochure.
Running costs
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $139.50 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,600 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Which one to look for
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
