1985 Buick LeSabre Reviews - Page 8 of 12

The car's exhaust was totally rusted out.

All, but one of the brake lines had to be replaced.

I am 16 and my first car is the 1985 Buick LeSabre. My friends make fun of the cars size. but I know when there are looking for a ride the come to me.

The brake lines should have never needed to be replaced, but sat in a shed for a few years.

The cars seats are awesome. The sound from the stereo beats mosts of my friends cars which are all in the 1990's.

I would not switch my car for any other used car.

15-18 miles per gallon is not the best, but I could do worse.

The doors cannot be unlocked from the outside. I keep them unlocked all the time now.

Exhaust is rusting out and needs replacement.

The doors and bumpers are rusting.

Rain enters the car on the drivers side of the windshield.

Wow do I love this car!

My grandfather died a few years back and left it to me. The car does have its problems, but who cares! The ride is super comfy and you can't beat the power.

Had to replace the rotting original exhaust system at 100,000 miles.

Had to replace engine mounts at 102,000 miles.

This car performs very well I think, considering it's size versus it's power train.

My fuel mileage ranges from 17 to 24 miles per gallon. Which I believe is very fair for a car it's size and age.

This is one of the most comfortable cars I've owned to date.

I also feel the car has been very dependable as I have had no operating problems, having put over 16,000 miles on it in just 8 months.

Doors starting to dry rot.

Hard to find replacement doors!

Rear bumper could be replaced due to rust damage.

So far so good.

I feel the same way most of you guy's do about these cars. I really lucked out. I purchased an 85 Two-door custom with the 307 Olds 5.0. Very minuet and surface and edge rust from sitting, except bottom of doors are starting to dry rot, but still swing on the hinges and close like their new, could use a new rear bumper too. Paint went soft on the trunk, it's kind of dull. Interior is immaculate, no burns, stains or smell. The AC and power windows work perfect. The Power steering is like a hot knife through soft butter. It has a "confirmed" 50,500 original miles on it (I have all the service records since 86 (Told you I lucked out!) ). From driving 3 Chevy 2.8's to this as my first 8 cyln..I'm in love..! My stomach turns to jelly driving this vehicle, it's like the same feeling I get when I see my woman walking around the house nude. Great comfortable vehicle with great gas mileage and Emissions for such a heavy car. Needs a new stereo though, it still has an ac delco AM only tuner with two speakers in the front(finding myself listening to more soul, funk and disco lately, which is kinda hilarious to me, driving this big car). And what kinda guy doesn't appreciate a four 1/2 body trunk (five with out the spare..!)? The only thing that might be a prob is finding Doors.
