1989 Buick Century Sedan review from North America
"For a old century, it's a fast little car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The transmission is starting to slip a little at 175,000 miles. Nothing a little Lucas Transmission Fix won't help. My speedometer has gone a little crazy and won't tell me the right speed I am going at 173,000 miles.
General comments?
This car has been a great car and hasn't had a lot of problems. The parts are really cheap and easy to find. This Buick is fast and gets great gas miles. I get around 26 miles to the gallon in this car. This is a great car and is really comfortable. I wouldn't want to get any other car, but this car.
