1991 Buick Regal Limited GS review from North America
"Drive it even while its dying"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brakes, brakes brakes. Two new rear rotors, rubber line collapsed and brakes locked up in back, and mostly just pads.
Tranny is going.
Struts are bad.
General comments?
It's fast, but the transmission is just a bad match for the motor. I bought this car for 500, and I guess I've gotten my moneys worth, but it is all starting to get bad all at once. The brakes are just a nightmare, and now the trans is going.
