1989 Buick Century Limited review from North America
"A dependable good riding car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only problems that I have with this car is in the winter. It starts really hard and stalls in the cold. The factory tape player stopped working.
General comments?
The car is most definitely designed for older folks, but at 25 I found the car a joy to drive.
I have driven back and forth from New York to Florida travelling from home and school. It proves to be very comfortable and quite on the highway. The car has been a real warrior. It has been in two accidents, one being with a deer and one with a Jeep Cherokee. The only complaint that I have about the car is the location of the stereo.
