After further review, the ruling on the field is, "it doesn't hurt anything to go look at it." Your legs still have the ability to walk away, yes?
I had a '99 STS and a 2008 DTS, neither ever leaked a drop of oil.I had a very low mileage 1999 with the Northstar engine. It leaked a little oil and I talked to an insurance buddy of mine who drove them all the time. He said they all leak oil. There are some really good buys out there on those cars because they really are not in high demand. Now it it was a Crown Vic..........
Yes I also wonder if he bought it. A 97 Eldorado would be a sweet ride. I like those Caddies if you can buy them inexpensively.I had a '99 STS and a 2008 DTS, neither ever leaked a drop of oil.
I wonder if the OP ever bought a Caddy 12 years ago?
Recently got a message from a fellow in Sweden that found a 1997 Eldorado, with 40 miles on it!
