for sale

Price: US $19.98

Description:

Up for sale is a clear title, ONE FAMILY OWNED 1998 Buick Century Limited. That’s right, my family name is the only one that have has ever graced the title of this car. It is finished in beautiful Jasper Green Metallic paint with sumptuous Taupe Leather interior. It has Only 47, 772 original miles. You are reading that correctly – this car is a time warp that you do not see very often.
My Buick is in exceptional condition inside and out for its age, and the pictures simply do not do it justice. My mother special ordered this car from the factory thru our family relationship with the owner of Jim Keras Buick in Memphis, TN with every option available at the time except a sunroof. Mom passed away in 2009, I inherited it, and the Buick has served as a spare car for my family ever since.
Mom checked off the options sheet when she ordered the Buick with the: Popular Option Package; Premium Option Package; Body Side Stripes; Carpet Savers in front and rear; Electrochromic rearview mirror; Heated Body Color Exterior Mirrors; Cruise Control, Rear Window integrated Antenna; the Premium sound system; Jasper Green Metallic Paint, and Taupe Leather. These option packages entailed many niceties such as dual electronic climate control, dual power seats, cruise control, high-end Concert Sound II stereo system with CD player, a Tape player, and steering wheel controls as well. In addition it has anti-lock brakes, dual airbags, 4 wheel disc brakes, aluminum alloy wheels, automatic headlights and dimming interior courtesy lights.
My Buick runs great, idles superbly smooth, passes inspection, and sips gas. It has been religiously maintained throughout its entire life. Furthermore, significant measures have been taken in preparation for sale to ensure peace of mind for the new owner. Below is a list of what has been done at Midas, Expert Import Service, and Jack Morris Auto Glass in Memphis, TN:
One-year old Duralast Gold battery still under full replacement warranty, one-year old starter, new water pump, new thermostat, new intake manifold gasket, new timing cover gasket, new serpentine belt, new radiator cap, new windshield, new rear view mirror, complete cooling flush to rid the system of toxic Dex-Cool, new upper and lower radiator hoses, new anti-lock brake computer, new front & rear brake pads, oil & filter change, brake fluid flush, new driver-side window regulators and motors replaced 2 years ago, new passenger-side window regulators and motors replaced a month ago, full detail.
My Buick has been garaged for all but 2 of its 18 year life span, and it has never seen snow. The car has never been smoked in, I can count on one hand how many times the back seat has had a passenger, and the trunk has never seen anything but a rolling bag.
What’s wrong with it? A few things - mainly due to being kicked out of the third garage spot by my daughter’s car. There are typical bumps and scratches on the sides and bumpers due to parking lots/garages over the years, but it still presents very well due to its extensive years of being under cover. A tree limb fell during a storm last year and dented the driver door and the hood (as you can see in the pictures). The screen for the automatic climate control does not display anything, but all functions still work correctly (this is very strange to me and I wonder if regular use would “wake” the screen back up).
Thank you for looking at my car. It is unquestionably the most exceptional example of a 1998 Buick Century in existence, and its new owner will understand immediately just how well it has been cared for. I welcome any questions you may have and sincerely appreciate your consideration in viewing my advertisement.
