1985 Pontiac Parisienne Eureka Limousine review from North America
"Really a fun driver!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far I've had to flush and replace the transmission filter.
The choke needs adjusting, but have parked it in storage for the winter - minus 30C is a little hard on it!
Previous owner had people dropping hot cigarette ashes and the seats have several small holes as a result.
The carpets have faded badly from a lot of cleaning with harsh chemicals from the looks.
Vandalism damage on the vinyl top needs immediate attention as it leaks.
General comments?
A really rare six-door limousine built by Eureka Body Works in Toronto, Ontario, Canada that stuns most people who see it.
It handles really well with the heavy suspension and gets around 20mpg on the highway (I live in rural Alberta, Canada).
Not really built for a large tall owner/driver, but what the hey!
