Buying the 1981 Dodge Lancer

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 1981 Dodge Lancer for sale by us right now. Before you buy the 1981 Dodge Lancer, see the figures and the checks worth doing.

Recalls and complaints

A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

What the figures tell you

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Good uses for the Lancer

It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

What the Lancer is like

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with.

Try before you buy

Rent the Lancer first, and buy only if it fits your life. Drive the Lancer on your commute before you commit to it. If the Lancer is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.

Which one to look for

Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.

Running costs

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
