1983 Buick Century Limited Sedan review from North America
"Love it!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Water pump.
Transmission at 366,000 miles.
A/C recharged twice.
At least three complete exhausts.
Not much besides normal maintenance.
General comments?
Never thought I'd see one of my cars run this long. It runs like a new car, and isn't too terribly rusty yet.
All the original electronics work.
Gets up to 34 MPG on the highway sometimes. Hardly burns any oil.
