1991 Oldsmobile Ciera STD 3.3L V6 from North America
Summary:
I would recommend this car to anyone looking for an affordable car
Faults:
Considering the car wasn't well cared for it had an array of problems. Leaky Valve cover (common on GMs with plastic valve covers), A/C burned out, Wheel Bearings were bad when the car was purchased, Fuel Pump died, Alternator went bad, Battery died in the dead of winter, Interior driver side door handle broke, exterior front passenger handle broke, Front passenger door flooded when it rained and leaked into the car.
General Comments:
I purchased this car after a new york cab driver T-boned my 90 Accord. My neighbor sold me his old Oldsmobile for $25 since I needed a car.
There were a few problems when I purchased the vehicle but most were cheap to fix.
The car was very quick and wouldn't get stuck for long in snow. The car was too small for me since I am 6'1" and the bench seat wouldn't go back far enough. Overall this car lasted me 3 years before I decided to buy a Chevy Lumina.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No
