General Comments:

Nothing has gone WRONG with the car, except some minor replacing of parts. Broke down once, found out it was a clogged fuel filter. Great gas mileage, my friend just bought a new ford focus, and I get better gas mileage than he does!

The car has some minor cosmetic damage. Paint has faded on hood, and there is rust on the car. The original top has no tears in it, or scratches.

Had to recently had to do a carb overhaul, new tires, and new exhaust.

Interior is extremely roomy, and comfortable, I am 6'5 and 230lbs, and there isn't too many cars I fit comfortably in.

Anyways, the car is a good old car, Its built well, even after 20yrs of abuse. Don't plan on selling it anytime soon. I would like to finish restoring the car as much as I can.

Faults:

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!

Faults:

The only things "wrong" with the car are the upholstery could use some love on the driver's side, one spark plug fouls every couple of weeks and needs replacing, and one of the power seat features doesn't work on both sides.

Having listed those petty little issues, I can't imagine not replacing whatever it may need in it's lifetime!

General Comments:

My previous cars have included 2 Dodge Darts (both were loved), a Dodge Caravan (worst mistake ever), a Toyota Cressida (very nice little car), Mercedes Benz 500SEL, and now this Parisienne.

We are the 3rd owners of the Parisienne, and after having it now for a few weeks, I can honestly say it is the best car I've ever owned, and I can't imagine not having it. It's an "old lady" car, and I'm a mother of 3, and even my children love riding in it, and begged us to buy it! Their friends love it too, and they're all in upper elementary grades.

There isn't one thing I don't really like about this car. It's perfect, economical for it's age, reliable, not fiberglass, large, comfy, smooth, and just about perfect for us.

Faults:

Alternator had to be replaced.

Starter had to be replaced.

Steering linkage wore out.

Power steering pump and hose had to be replaced.

The engine is leaking oil, and I will need to find the source soon to avoid such frequent top-offs.

Water pump developed a leak, and had to be replaced.

General Comments:

This has really been an amazing car. I bought it when I started college just to get me there and back. I would have preferred another vehicle; one a little smaller. But the price ($2000.00) was not bad, and the car ran well. Little did I know it would last this long.

I never had any experience fixing cars in the past, but have been able to figure things out on this one. With a manual in hand, it is an easy car to work on.

While it has become more sluggish in its old age, it is still a quick and powerful machine. It glides down the road.

Gas mileage started at about 20 mpg, and has dropped to around 18, which I still consider good.

The car is still on its original engine and transmission.
