1984 Buick LeSabre Limited review from North America
"Good car for the long haul"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Bought car from estate of a 84 year old man for $800.
Mileage is original,
But, like anything that is 20 years old, it needed some updates.
Carb. rebuilt,
All hoses and belts replaced.
Waterpump replaced.
All brakes and shocks replaced.
Catylitic converter replaced along with new exhaust system.
All new air-conditioning system.
General comments?
Bought car just to have something cheap while I looked for another "beauty"!
But, 4 years and $3000 later, I still own the thing.
You just can't kill it.
Rides good, although the a-frames bushes are squeaking now (need replaced).
Its been a good car, cheap, I have replaced things that probably the avergae Joe would not have because of its age, but, I had to have air-conditioning ($800).
No car payment, cheap on insurance, after the initial year I bought it, I just throw about $400 in it a year.
Paint is faded and the vinyl top has seen its better days, but the interior still looks really good!
