1999 Pontiac Montana Ext review from North America
"Best value around, even given the normal problems with this model"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The usual valve cover lower gaskets required replacement. Other than that, only maintenance items have been required (tires, shocks, etc).
General comments?
Purchased 3 years ago. It was and is, faster than its competitors, more efficient (than all, but 2004+ toyotas minivans...) and significantly higher value than any other minivan on the market... even after you consider the problems that are normal on this model.
