I am the new owner of a pretty 1993 Seville I got at a sheriff's auction. It has 146,100 miles on it. Apart from being heavily smoked in (and the carpet burns that go along with that, sigh), and the driver's seat being absolutely, totally worn to the metal by what must have been a very large previous owner, the car is pretty decent.
One thing I had a question about is that the ride seems hard to me for a Cadillac. It does not sway and damps out decently on the corner-bounce test, but it almost feels like riding in a truck compared to the "goosh" I would expect from a Cadillac suspension (road translation is harsh).
As part of the seizure procedure (I'm a poet and don't know it, lol!), assets have to sit in storage for two years. A fellow on another forum said that it is possible the valves in the struts have frozen in that time frame and should be replaced.
What do you folks think? I would appreciate any information you can give.
