Used Buick Century for Sale

I don't dislike this car, but it is not the kind of car that I would choose to own (I got it as a gift). I've always seen Buick's as being the kind of car that old businessmen drive, and this car definitely fits in that mold: stuffy, no nonsense, and boring. That said, it IS a nice, smooth drive.

My very first car was a 1992 Buick Century that we lovingly called "The Banging Buick or The Boat" I truly did love this car and it lasted me for 6 1/2 years, realizing I got it with 145,000 miles was pretty impressive. There was not a lot special and exciting about this car, other than a strange little map light, but it was extremely reliable. These cars are a great first car for a teenager I don't think you could get it over 85 mph if you tried, but was big and safe. It was extremely spacious in both the front and back seat, with tons of trunk space. The ride was pretty smooth for an older vehicle. The gas mileage was not great about 18-20 mpg. Acceleration was also not great, but it did handle well. The biggest issue was the summer I had it in Chicago though, parallel parking was a nightmare! Overall I loved this car, nothing flashy, but if you need something that is reliable and safe then this is the car for you.

I've driven about 120,000 miles on this car but started having problems around 100,000 miles. Still don't know what is wrong with the car, but it started occasionally stalling out at mid-level speeds and has been having random things go wrong with it since (e.g., Tps, serpentine belt). Very poor gas mileage. Very comfortable car. It's still running and hasn't had any major (known) problems so far, so I'd say it's fairly reliable. The performance started deteriorating at around 100,000 but not hugely; I can still drive it for my 40 mile round-trip commute every day. Before I hit 100,000 miles, I didn't have a single problem with it. It ran very smoothly and, despite being a bigger car, was quieter than most cars that I've been in. Air conditioning works great. This is something I've had a problem with in other, newer cars. Nugget: I could fit all of my belongings in one car trip with this car. The trunk space is enormous (although I also used the back seats).
