1994 Buick Regal Custom review from North America
"This is a great used car buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I replaced the alternator at 135,000 miles. I had to replace a tie rod at about 145,000. The radiator and water pump were both replaced at about 155,000 miles, and the starter was replaced at 165,000 miles.
General comments?
This has been my favorite car. It has a peppy engine and handles very predictably. Even with its present odometer mileage of 169,000 I would not hesitate to go on an interstate journey.
