Ownership & History:
We are not the original owners of the vehicle.  It was recently donated to us by the previous owner's son.  His father bought it used in 2000  Among the included documentation is an envelope with some receipts and invoices regarding service history, with examples from 1998 through 2002 (We do not have a complete collection of service receipts/invoices).  

Documentation included consists of the following: 1985 Riviera owner's manual, AM/FM Stereo Radio Listening Manual, 2 photocopied sheets on fuse locations, wire wheel installation procedure sheet, wire wheel cover locking wrench registration card, 1985 Warranty and Owner Assistance Information (we only have the cover of the warranty info.), some service receipts/invoices from 1998 through 2002, a 1985 Buick Riviera Audio Owner's Guide (an unopened cassette tape), and a piece of 1985 Buick sales literature. 

We believe we have represented this Oldsmobile as accurately as possible by virtue of the many photographs as well as the descriptive listing, but interested parties are encouraged to ask questions and/or schedule a personal inspection.  In addition, since this is a used vehicle we recently acquired, the buyer is advised that it may require some degree of re-commisioning before placing it into routine service.

This vehicle is offered as is, where is, with no warranty expressed or implied.  It has a valid Pennsylvania title which will be transferred to the new owner upon successful completion of the transaction. Shipping and transportation of the car are the responsibility of the new owner.  We will gladly work with you or the shipper/transporter of your choice to coordinate the move.  The new owner will have two weeks from the completion of the auction to pick up the vehicle unless other arrangements are made in advance.  If the car is not picked up within this time frame (and other satisfactory arrangements are not made), then we reserve the right to charge a storage fee for the vehicle based on the local going rate.  Payment may be in the form of cash, money order or cashier's/bank check.

GM issues four new recalls, 2.4 million cars affected

Tue, 20 May 2014

General Motors has announced another set of recalls, covering some 2.42 million cars in the United States. For those keeping track, The General has now recalled over 15 million cars worldwide this year due to various issues.
Here's the breakdown for this most recent set of recalls:
1,339,355 - Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia models from the 2009 to 2014 model years; Saturn Outlook models from the 2009 to 2010 model years

GM recalling 2013 Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac SRX over transmission software

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued recalls for the 2013 Buick LaCrosse and 2013 Cadillac SRX due to a problem with the software for the transmission controller. On about 27,000 SRX and LaCrosse models, the transmission could accidentally be shifted to Sport mode, which would reduce the amount of engine braking drivers experience.
NHTSA says this could increase the risk of a crash, but, fortunately, the required fix is simply an update to the software.
While we're on the subject of General Motors vehicle recalls, a small number (48) of compressed natural gas versions of the 2011 Chevrolet Express are also being recalled for a potential risk of fire or explosion. Yikes. Both official recall notices are posted below.

2013 Buick Verano Turbo

Thu, 03 Jan 2013

Not Luxury. Not Sport. Not Buick. Not Bad.
Those of you who still think of the Buick Verano as some sort of callously badge-engineered, gussied up version of the Chevrolet Cruze ("Why would anyone spend that much money on Buick's Cruze?" you may have been heard to mutter) have got the wrong idea. Entirely. Even in its most modest form, the Verano turns out to be a sedan that is feature-rich, insulated from wind and road noise in proper luxury car fashion, pretty good to drive and not bad to look at in the new school of high-nosed pedestrian-impact-regulated fashion. In a less modest form then, one that attaches the word "Turbo" to the moniker and plops a force-fed 2.0-liter four-cylinder under the hood, the Verano is downright interesting.
Of course, "interesting" is rarely a descriptor that fills one with lust - and so it goes with this example. There are two competing forces within this near-premium subcompact sedan, and the balance struck between them must resonate with any potential customer before the Verano Turbo can become a serious purchase consideration.
