1989 Oldsmobile 98 Regency review from North America
"Elderly, but rides with style"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far, the exhaust has fallen off and,
found it was held on by a soup can. The starter just went and the sunroof leaks. The steering wheel has a small blush brush holding the horn away from the center, otherwize it goes off on its own. I need to replace the front passenger hub, the car shimmies just a little. Oh and the passenger rear door doesn't open.
General comments?
I love the trunk that closes on its own, and the way it rides.
