1974 Chrysler New Yorker Brougham review from North America
"Underdog of the 1970's luxury market"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Little things - electric aerial got stuck, wiper switch broke, remote control mirrors had to be moved manually.
General comments?
Lounge on wheels, with a boost of V-8 power. Fast, and comfortable. Great for long trips, with its cruise control, and ice cold A/C. Great cooling/heating system. Started every time in freezing temperatures. Posi-traction made it handle surprisingly well in snow.
