1988 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale 3.8 from North America
Summary:
An extremely comfortable, but powerful vehicle
Faults:
The front end was replaced at about 300,000 KM.
Seats have lost a bit of their cushion.
Body started to show rust two years ago, but in past two years, has deteriorated fast.
The original exhaust pipe was welded back together - still has original exhaust system.
General Comments:
This has been a fantastic car. Other than the problem mentioned above, and minor things such as brakes and a PVC valve, nothing has gone wrong.
I've driven this car hard and long. Even at 130Km/Hour, I've managed over 700KM out of every tank of gas. I haven't bothered to change the oil on it in over a year, either.
A very comfortable car! A great deal when I bought it for $2,000.00. It's more than paid me back.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

You will find that even at 220km/h you will *still* get between 22 and 23mpg!
I have had my stock 1988 delta 88 3.8L V6 up to 245km/h with the exception of a higher grade of tire.
Totally amazing car!
