Luup alternative with this car
If you need a rental car, the 1998 Buick Regal is one option; this page explains the car and how booking works. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.
Engine and fuel
The 3.8L 6-cylinder does the work, through a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Fuel use is rated 11.2 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 34 litres. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $17.36 at our price setting.
Best uses
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Living with the Regal
Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. Luggage space is rated at 481 litres: a family's bags for a long weekend.
Rent this car
Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. There is no exact match in our fleet today. Request it and we search for one, or take a similar car. Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you what we can offer. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
How a booking comes together
It begins with your request, sent online in a few minutes, with no payment. We reply with an offer for the car and the dates, priced in full. If you approve, you pay and the car is yours for those dates.
You can see every car's calendar and rates before you send anything. From 7 days, the weekly rate applies; up to 365 days, a trip never costs more than the monthly rate. Short notice is fine: 2 hours is the minimum before a pickup.
Checking your details
Drivers need to be 18 or over, holding an Ontario G2 or G licence for the whole rental. Age fees stop at 26: younger drivers pay a daily young driver fee. We check that the card and the licence carry the same name.
The CarmaCars Protection Plan is one of three options for damage to the car; the others are OPCF 27 on your policy or a card with rental car benefits. There is a deposit for each rental, taken shortly before pickup rather than at booking. Additional drivers can be added; each one meets the same rules and signs the agreement.

Send a request with your dates, and we will come back with an offer.
