1992 Oldsmobile 98 Regency Elite review from North America
"This car has been great... would love to have another"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Starters are replaced periodically.
Have a difficult time keeping the steering wheel control buttons from falling off.
The leather was already wearing slightly when we got the car.
General wear and tear with this many miles.
General comments?
This car has been a reliable cruiser for our family. Many compliments from passengers over the years on the comfortable and quiet ride.
Hard to find a car with more trunk space.
I was reluctant to obtain this car (thought it an old persons car. <snicker>) until we took it for a test ride.. then I was hooked. Amazing how a simple window tint spiffied her up. Now I'm concerned we won't be able to find another to replace it with.
Mechanically, its been with a minimum of issues. No major repairs or problems. Typical maintenance issues with wear and tear with so many miles.
