1989 Buick Reatta 2 door coupe review from North America
"Dependable, great looking, easy to drive and see out of"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I put new water pump on myself - $35.
Converted Teves brakes to conventional power brake system, tune up, new hoses, thermostat and belt.
New power window motor, $25 off eBay.
General comments?
Great smooth running car, really dependable, mechanical parts very reasonable.
I have great luck with it, no oil leaks, starts easily. Lots of compliments, the leather looks great, and I will keep this car for a long time.
