230,000MILES ON A 1993 CADILLAC FLEETWOOD?

Not uncommon. Those cars will practically run forever when properly cared for. Sounds like the engine is decent, but I would try to find out the following if the transmission ever replaced/rebuilt. Even if they're "all highway miles," I would be surprised to hear that the 4L60E had never been replaced. Assuming it was, how many miles ago? How does it feel shifting now?

Sounds like a decent deal if the body and interior are in decent shape. Let me know if you have any questions.

is it the same trans. as 96'? :dunno:

i wouldnt buy shit with a quarter million miles on it

i learned the hard way about getting so called "good deals" so ur getting the car at half price but ut getting something with out a lot of life left in it..i have seen several bigbodies with less then 100k and in excellent shape for 3500-4500..id say keep ur 2000 save up more and get a low mile grandma car that is mint..it will pay off in the long run

i agree with him on this if u try and save now u will pay dearly later just wait and see what else comes your way

i really want a fleet but i really would like a lincoln town car like a 1990-95? but i cant find one in the texas area for a good price?

I bought mine for $1,500.....95 Fleetwood Brougham, 256,000mi. Body was in good shape, but the interior was fair condition. It was a taxi car, but it ran like it was brand new. Had to sell it for my new toy. :biggrin:
