used car of the day 1995 buick roadmaster estate wagon

Wagons! Wood paneling! 1990s General Motors! This 1995 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon is all that and more.

This one has a 5.7-liter LT1 V8 under the hood and our seller says it runs well. There's a new battery, new exhaust, subwoofer, and custom head unit.

The mileage is high at 248K, but we're told the A/C blows cold.

Snow tires and extra parts are available.

Apparently the air-shock lines have a slow leak and the ABS and service engine soon lights are on, and that latter might be related to an EGR issue.

You can snag this ride in Ohio for $2,850. Click here to see more.

Tim Healey

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

If you were NOT looking for a Decrepit Hooptie of the Day and were disappointed that Tim misled you thinking he got a 'used car' instead, you could NOT have done better than this SCREAMING BARGAIN that would get you a 2012 piece of LEGENDARY AUTOMOTIVE GREATNESS (And I MEAN EVERY WORD), with only 30k or so well documented miles, always serviced at the dealership, which a lucky guy STOLE for $18,000 worthless Kamala $. You would be getting a practically new car FIT FOR A KING, not a penniless redneck. But don't listen to me, or the owner, listen to what OTHER OWNERS SAY:.......................... "Ugh. Someone is going to get this car at an astounding price. I have had 2 of these, 2007 (to 136K) and my current 2010 with 71K (just because I got an astounding deal on it). This generation has a nearly bulletproof leather (it is literally uncanny how new my seats look at 71K & 14 years old) it lasts longer than any other S class than I have seen, certainaly more robust than the W222 that I can tell. If this had Driver Assistance, I would bid. One of the very best sedans of any kind out there, incl Bentley Flying Spur. If you have not had an S-class, trust me, start with this one. If you have had one, well, you know."................................ https://carsandbids.com/auctions/K1yGYAeG/2012-mercedes-benz-s550

Namesakeone It should be a name that evoques the wild west, that emphasizes the go-anywhere nature of how an SUV should be used. Something like a wild animal, maybe something like a horse. I've got it! How about . . . Mustang! Oh, wait. They already did that, didn't they?
Slavuta There Used to be Pontiac Trans Sport.... That "Trans Sport" part has a totally new meaning these days
210delray You need to change the headline -- it's a 2025 model.
Jeff How about Aspire for a new subcompact crossover from Ford because it aspires to be bigger and its buyers would aspire for a better vehicle if they could afford it.
Jeff Carlos Travares wants to cut costs by 1/3. I don't see Chrysler or Dodge surviving too much longer especially since they are being literally starved for product. The success of the new Charger could extend Dodge a few more years but a failure might be a quick end to Dodge. I could see Stellantis moving more manufacturing for Jeep and Ram to Mexico which I believe will eventually be the only surviving brands of the old Chrysler. As for the Durango if it continues it will not be for too many more years it is an outdated product that I doubt will be redesigned especially when Jeep has a comparable product. Stellantis needs to address the high dealer inventory level by giving better incentives and low interest rates to clear excessive inventory.
