1984 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale review from North America
"Dirt cheap luxury"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The windshield washer motors had to be replaced. No big deal there.
The passenger seats plastic trim broke near the bottom and got caught on the arm rest. Again an easy fix.
The most frustrating problem was my headliner. There was absolutely nothing keeping it attached to the roof, and it became quite cumbersome.
General comments?
Driving this car is like piloting a king sized bed down the road.
The Buick V6 may not be the strongest power-plant out there, but it's fantastic on gas and great on the highway.
