Used Buick Century for Sale

The Buick, while it has never broken down on me, always feels "off." What I mean by this specifically is that the car rumbles when the ignition is started. Various creaks and noises seem to come from the engine when driving or while parked, and you can feel the car "moving" too much while you drive. The build quality, while appearing stable, therefore seems suspect to me. The internal materials are nice in the Buick, and I especially like the middle compartment which is movable and has a lot of space for knick-knacks. The fuel economy is not great—it seems like I generally get about 300 miles for a full tank but sometimes less. The performance is generally reliable, although I do notice that the engine struggles when going up hills quite a bit and that sometimes I really need to "floor" the gas to get up to high speeds on the highway. The style of the car is decent, as the car is roomy and has a nice appearance, but is a little bit too large for my taste and feels a bit clunky to me. The Buick has a lot of trunk space, which is nice. One thing about the Buick is that the rear window broke for no apparent reason. It went off its track and the power button stopped working. I ended up having to lock it in place rather than endure a costly repair.

The 2003 Buick Century is a great, reliable car, with comfortable seating, power windows, automatic lights and an old fashioned cassette/CD player. It gets reliable gas mileage, has been dependable in tough weather, and overall an enjoyable, cost-friendly car to operate. When I purchased this car five years ago, with only 96,000 miles at the time. I was unaware that there had been a major accident prior. This had never been disclosed during the purchase, a lesson I have learned. However, it made this otherwise cost friendly car a little more expensive, as the frame the car sat on had been broken, which led to over a thousand dollars of repairs over the first few years of use. Though this still led to an overall affordable vehicle, it was disappointing to say the least. One nugget is that this car does not have an automatic trunk, probably normal for its year of production. However, it definitely became a nuisance with traveling and loading/unloading the car - just something to consider.

This vehicle has 120,000 miles on it, and all I've ever done is change the oil, tires and battery. The interior has held up well over 18 years, as has the exterior. It gets relatively good has mileage and is easy to drive.
