1985 Buick Century LTD review from North America
"Indestructible economical tank"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear view mirror fell off.
Ceiling starting to droop.
Cheap Delco radio display non-working, needs a smack once in a while, also seems to be a tone generator.
Fan relay (a few wires) cut out.
General comments?
This is the most reliable car I've ever had. Prior to this I've had a Lincoln Continental, and Mercury Grand Marquis. This car has never left me stranded, and I've never seen a car take so much impact and come out unscathed.
It is also incredibly good on gas, even without an overdrive gear. I made it 600 miles on a little over half a tank.
This car will keep going after what's left of the body is completely rusted off. Go Buick!
