1985 Buick Skylark Custom review from North America
"Wonderful little car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing really, when I got the car it had sat in a towing company's impound yard, or more like a field for 8 years and had the front pasanger A-frame broken off. I bought it for $50 and they gave me a parts car to fix it with. I've only had to change the oil and put tires on it since I got it.
General comments?
I love the gas mileage this car gets, right around 45mpg on the highway.
It handles like a sports car.
It still has a lot of miles to go and its get up and go hasn't got up and left yet so I'll more than likely keep it for a very long time.
