Low mileage for its age: 111,516 miles (179,469 km)
Impressive large Buick saloon
Rare model in Europe
3.8-litre Buick V6 engine
What makes it special
Inspired by Buick’s “Essence” concept car, the big Park Avenue introduced a more restrained, more fluid European-influenced style, allowing the brand to bring its luxurious saloon a blend of the qualities that had made Mercedes, Audi and BMW such a success.
These cars are surely the peak of the era of ultra-comfortable American saloons, dubbed the “cushion” era thanks to their particularly soft seats. One look at the generously padded beige leather cabin in this example is enough to confirm it. Finished in metallic Bordeaux with grey lower sections, this Park Avenue—advertised as matching its original configuration—shows low mileage for its age. It’s fitted with the famed 3.8-litre Buick V6, teamed with a 4-speed automatic gearbox known for its smoothness.
This car has been part of the seller’s collection for several years and has covered very little mileage during that time. A few checks and recommissioning may therefore be required before setting off on the road again.image.png1.3 MB
