This is a NO Reserve Auction, dont't miss your opportunity to own a great car with lots of potential.Classic Bustle Back Cadillac Seville. Cadillac was taking chances in the 1980s switching to front-wheel-drive adding technology like fuel injection and of course creating cars like this stunning 1985 Seville. The design didn't catch on with everyone for those few who appreciate the design it's the epitome of 1980s elegance and style. The influence of Rolls-Royce styling is undeniable and the clipped trunk recalls the designs of Hooper in the 1950s when it was called razor-edge styling. The Seville's broad front end and spacious greenhouse actually works better than most of the frumpy Rolls-Royce designs. This is an excellent survivor with great body lines and the stainless trim that stretches the length of the body and further emphasizes the trunk. And no car from the early '80s is complete without a lot of chrome including heavy bumpers. The blue cloth interior is simply spectacular in a 1980s kind of way. This is what luxury looked and felt like 30 years ago and to be honest it's pretty cool. Tufted seats lots of stretch-out room deep pile carpets and enough sound-deadening for a radio station mean that it's as comfortable and hushed as an English gentlemen's club. Everything was standard equipment on Cadillac's top-of-the-line machine including power windows locks and seats automatic climate control a tilt column and cruise control. And lest you think that abbreviated trunk profile hampers cargo space guess again because somehow the trunk is quite cavernous. Cadillac's 4.1-liter V8 engine is smooth and torquey if not a tire-shredding monster. It moves the front-wheel-drive Seville with ease and goes about its business unobtrusively and actually pulls down .decent fuel economy. The front-wheel-drive system has proven itself over the decades and the traction offered by the system will impress you should the weather turn nasty. The all-independent suspension rides well there's a disc brake at each corner this car is still an awesome highway cruiser for road trips. Handsome Chrome Wire Wheels are a nice touch. Not a lot of these have survived so if you're one of those guys who loved the look perhaps this is your chance to own a car with great potential. The drivetrain is in very good condition, it has been well maintained over the years. I have owned this car for over 10 years.
