1988 Oldsmobile 98 Regency review from North America
"Best thing on four wheels."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Vacuum hoses needed replacing when inspected, this was because of the vehicle's age. (The replacement was cheap).
Radiator hoses were also replaced at 160000 miles.
The windshield leaks when it rains.
General comments?
Most reliable car that I have ever driven.
This car has never died unexpectedly and left me stranded.
This car start on the first turn of the key from they day I bought it.
The ride is very smooth, and the seats are very comfortable.
Everything still works, even after almost 200000 miles.
I love this vehicle.
