1984 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale Brougham review from North America
"The only kind of car I will ever purchase"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Around 44 thousand km the water pump went on it, but it was only 50 bucks to replace. The reason the water pump went was I never check the fluid and run the bag off the car.
General comments?
This car is the most comfortable car I have ever owned. It rides down the road very nice, has lots of power (does good smoke shows and brake stands), and still gets around 21 mpg.
It is extremely easy to bury the speedometer (140) and it beats most Toyota cars by 2 or 3 lengths.
I have driven the car across the country 3 times, I have nothing bad to say about the car.
