The 2000 Daewoo Lanos for buyers

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2000 Daewoo Lanos for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. This page sets out the 2000 Daewoo Lanos for buyers, in plain words.

Before you sign for the Lanos

A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. 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.

The figures, translated

Power comes from the 1.5L 4-cylinder, driving through a 5-speed manual. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Rated at 9.0 L/100 km combined, it needs around 27 litres for a 300 km round trip. For 1,000 km, budget about $139.50 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,600 a year for 15,000 miles.

Space and size

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. For luggage, 340 litres means about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Best uses

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.

Rent it for a week first

Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the Lanos for a week and see how it fits your life.

What it costs to run

Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $13.95 in fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.

Which one to look for

If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

Ask us anything about renting before you buy.
