1987 Buick Regal Limited review from North America
"Great, but could be better. A great remodel!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Electrical short (my fault).
Timing gear is worn badly.
Computer caught on fire (screwed up the timing).
Threw a rod at 144,735.
General comments?
My car has been great for the time I have had it.
A killer stereo, a beautiful humming 305 small block and a kick tail paint job.
However as of late it went crazy. I just started tearing itself up. I guess that goes with the mileage.
A great car otherwise.
