1985 Buick LeSabre Estate Wagon review from North America
"Big and awesome"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far, nothing at all has gone wrong with the car.
General comments?
I purchased the nineteen-year-old car for $100, then proceeded to drive it from Massachusetts to California with no trouble at all.
Extremely comfortable, although the seats do not recline.
I have never once had to take it in to a garage for anything more than an oil change, and I drive a considerable amount.
Super easy to drive, but there is one problem: it is a BIG car. You have to take care when pulling in and out of parking spaces and such.
Still, it's excellent.
