1983 Buick Electra limeted review from North America
"A reliable "Cadillac""
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My fuel pump went out when I got the car at 77000 miles, but that is expected with a mechanical fuel pump.
My alternator went out at 77000 miles as well. Both of these things were expected because the car sat for about two years.
General comments?
This car is the nicest car I have owned. It is the oldest, but most reliable. It is very cozy. It is considered a gas hog to moast people.
