1988 Chevrolet Celebrity Station Wagon review from North America
"A very reliable, inexpensive car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The water pump went in 2001.
In the same year, I had to get the gas tank and fuel sender replaced, but I got the parts used, so it wasn't too expensive.
The passenger side interior door handle is starting to fall off, but it can be easily repaired.
The driver side rear exterior door handle doesn't work anymore.
The doors are starting to rust on the bottom, but not too bad.
General comments?
This car has quite a bit of power for a station wagon, I was very surprised.
The seats are comfortable, and don't seem to show any wear whatsoever.
The car has been incredibly reliable for my entire family, who owned it before me.
