Brian, your old car looks exactly the same, any major issues in the addition 80K that you had on your 94? (this one I'm getting has 163 000 kms)
Nope nothing major since 116k except for brakes and a couple of front wheel bearings, but I have a bit of noise in the front steering so I'm thinkin maybe time for new struts. My '89 went to 350k without any major problems, it was the "A' pillar that rotted out making the passenger door fall off and a new front clip was not cost effective to replace at that point in time. Enjoy the car Jim, she probably has a lot of worry free dtiving left in her.

Awesome, I know that the front hubs had been changed already on this car, and the brakes were in amazing shape, the car stopped on a dime.

I'm hoping the car serves me well. I'm looking forward to getting it!

Not gonna happen, the Aurora is to much "car" for it to become the less favourite in my books. I will enjoy the Bonneville, as we all should, however, the Aurora is the "Alpha car" in this relationship

Angie likes em both, and will learn to drive both, that will give nice flexibility

That random SE pic is Daves other Bonneville (not for sale)..he had 3 at one point!
