Cadillac 1976
The "compact" Cadillacs we simply cant help but love This is an amazingly beautiful condition Cadillac Seville whose immaculate and original presentation simply defies its mileage. It is a 2 previous owner car, always garage kept and a true credit to its owners for the loving and caring ownership given to her. She is finished in "Firethorn metallic" (2211) and "Antique Dark Firethorn" (712) leather interior.
It has its all original body, paint and chrome. All in excellent original condition and great presentation. The paint is mostly original with absolutely no signs of accident damage. There are some very minor imperfections here and there but the finish presents very well with a good shine. There is no rust in the body panels. It does present very well. Surprisingly, underneath the car is quite clean. It is currently part of a private collection and as such is professionally stored in a climate controlled showroom.
The leather interior is simply perfect without any signs of wear, marks, scratches or blemishes of any kind. The headlining is like new without any of the typical sagging of the fabric often seen on these cars. All finishes, chrome, faux wood, steering wheel and carpets present beautifully. It is truly very nice and sumptuously inviting. Even the steering column near the key, where it is normally scratched from even modest use, is entirely blemish free and looks like new. It was the virtual "new appearance" of the inside of the car that really attracted me when I bought her. She comes with her original Cadillac interior and trunk floor mats.
Everything works as it should – electric windows, seats, aerial, cruise control, auto & delay headlights, gauges and instruments. Heater blows toasty and A/C is ice cold.
Mechanically excellent with no oil leaks or exhaust leaks. Simply, an ultra-smooth highway cruiser that fires up first time, every time. You drive this car over the roughest of roads, or even a railway line, and it will glide over them better than any car of its era. She is simply amazing (see brief video). Brand new battery, good tyres and brakes and just great to drive. You won’t find a better priced semi-classic cruiser with all the creature comforts to drive this summer! She is STUNNING!
Please see the link to the photos which say it all:

only selling this car because I am space limited. If I had the choice, I would
keep her for sure. I will be a little sad to see her go. Brochures from the era - a true 70's icon design. The trunk is literally as new without a single mark! Space-saver tire never used. Will add engine photos tomorrow 6/25/14 Please be patient - it is as clean as the rest of the car! I realised after I took the photos that the hood was not latched
properly on the right side. It sits correctly in real-life

This Cadillac is part of a private collection. Although licensed and bonded, I am not a main-stream retail car dealer or broker; I am a professional car collector of some 30 years with considerable experience and knowledge of predominantly British cars. I simply love excellent condition cars of a wide variety and simply love cars! I take a lot of pride in my cars and have fun in collecting and restoring them. However, auctions are not a game so when you place a bid or offer, and you are the winning bidder, please understand you have entered a binding contract. You cannot bid and win the auction and expect not to meet the terms and conditions. Bidding and/or winning does not mean you are expecting me to “hold” the car until you have the opportunity to inspect it. Any inspection contemplated should be undertaken BEFORE you bid or make an offer and I openly welcome any potential buyer to come and personally inspect the car. Once you bid or make an offer, you are doing so to buy WITHOUT conditions. A $1000.00 deposit (non-refundable) is required within 24 hours of the close of the auction and payable by PayPal. The balance of funds are required within 7 days of the close of the auction and must be provided by cashier’s check or bank wire. I cannot accept PayPal for the balance unless you are willing to meet the cost of transfer fees. Full payment must be made (and payments cleared) before the title and/or the vehicle is released. All payments are non-refundable. Payments as described above form an important part of this purchase contract and so, if all the funds are not received as outlined above, I reserve the right to terminate the transaction without notice. If there has been any deposit or other part payments received and I elect to terminate the contract, I reserve the right to keep any such deposits or payments and resell the vehicle to another bidder or interested party or re-list the vehicle at any time. I am happy to assist with shipping arrangements on a national and worldwide basis but the winning bidder takes full responsibility for pickup and/or shipping and at his cost.
As a collector and experienced restorer of a variety of cars, I make every effort to bring my cars to a very high standard. Unless specifically stated, the car is not of show standard but of good quality "driver" condition. Please understand, the very nature of any classic car of any kind is such that it is not always possible to attend to every single item, or perhaps I may have inadvertently overlooked an item. Please note, fitted radio/stereo systems are usually subject to upgrade by purchasers so I do not ensure operation of these but simply keep the "original look". Further, a feature or function that is working perfectly one moment, may decide to play-up the next. After all, it is some 38 years old. For this reason it is necessary for the following condition:
The vehicle is being sold
"as-is/where-is" with no warranty expressed, written or
implied. Any descriptions or representations are made with reasonable
judgment and all efforts are made to ensure fair assessment and accuracy
but they are for descriptive and identification purposes only and are not to be
construed as a warranty of any type. The seller shall not be responsible
for errors in description, authenticity, genuineness, or defects herein
and makes no warranty in connection therewith. No allowance or set aside will
be made on account of any incorrectness, unforeseen imperfection, defect or
damage. It is the responsibility of the buyer to have satisfied himself as
to the condition and value and to bid based upon that judgment solely. The
seller shall and will make every reasonable effort to disclose any known
defects at the buyer’s request prior to the close of the auction. Seller
assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statements about
the vehicle. Being a classic car in excess of 10 years of age, in most
PLEASE; IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO ABIDE BY THESE TERMS, DO

Your guide to vehicle subscription services
Mon, Oct 1 2018They might be extremely limited in scope because of location availability, but vehicle subscription services are a growing trend that most luxury manufacturers are jumping on. Plans are expensive, but you're paying for much more than just the car typically. We highlighted four of the larger plans with a few more listed at the end. Care by Volvo Volvo launched its subscription service last year with its brand-new XC40. It was the only vehicle available for a time, but subscribers can now get an S60 sedan as well. Subscriptions are for two years, with the monthly price including insurance, a concierge service, wear-and-tear item replacements and all maintenance. You'll be able to drive 15,000 miles per year with whichever Volvo you choose, and although there are no options to extend that mileage, you can swap cars after a year. Pricing for the XC40 is $650 per month in base trim, while an S60 can be as expensive as $850 for the R-Design. Volvo's plan is to offer more cars soon through the service, but it's relatively limited compared to others right now. Porsche Passport Porsche has two levels in its subscription service: Launch and Accelerate. Launch will cost $2,000 per month and give you access to the Cayman, Boxster, Macan and Cayenne. All of those but the Cayenne can be had in "S" trim as well. Accelerate is where the fun really starts. For $3,000 per month you can choose from a fleet of 911s, including the S, 4S, Cabriolet and Cabriolet S. If those aren't enough, you can also get the Panamera 4S, Macan GTS and Cayenne S. There are no mileage limits and you can change vehicles as often as you'd like. Also included in the price is insurance, repairs, detailing and any maintenance. It might be extremely expensive and limited to Atlanta only, but this subscription service is second-to-none for what you get. Audi Select Audi just launched its subscription car service, and it's offered in one version for a flat fee of $1,395 per month. For that you'll have access to five different cars including the A4, S5 Coupe, A5 Cabriolet, Q5, and Q7. Not a bad range of vehicles, but it would've been neat to see the recently updated A7 in there too. Maybe in time. Like the others, insurance and maintenance are wrapped up in the price. Audi is allowing for unlimited miles and two car swaps per month here. In addition to that, you'll get two days of free rentals through Audi's Silvercar rental agency should you go on a trip.
Cadillac recalls 17,500 SRX CUVs in Canada
Fri, 03 Oct 2014When reporting on recalls, Autoblog generally tries to focus on the US market. However, a recent campaign in Canada seems important enough to be worth mentioning because it could eventually affect American drivers. General Motors is repairing 17,481 Canadian examples of the Cadillac SRX from the 2010-2015 model years because of the possibility of a loose nut in the rear suspension. For the moment, the automaker hasn't yet announced whether the CUV in the US would require a similar campaign.
The notice was dated September 18, 2014, on the website for Transport Canada, similar to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in the US. It says, "the rear suspension toe link jam nuts" might not have been sufficiency tightened, which could allow a rear wheel to turn "inboard or outboard" while driving. If this happens, it could cause a sudden change in handling. Canadian Cadillac dealers are inspecting the parts and replacing the toe link if necessary.
This campaign isn't listed on the GM's running recall tally from September, which includes exported models, but it does list four other campaigns for the SRX this year - three in this range of years and one for the 2004-2006 model. Autoblog reached out to the company to ask about the possibility of this recall expanding to the US and were told "We have not publicly announced US recalls" for the issues affecting the SRX. The New York Times was given a similar quote. Scroll down to read the notice from Transport Canada.
GM delivers best Q3 sales since 1980, 2.4M vehicles sold
Wed, 15 Oct 2014People are a weird sort. Even after registering over 70 recalls through the first three-quarters of 2014, General Motors saw its best Q3 results since Jimmy Carter was in the White House, registering over 2.4 million global sales between June and September on the back of strong results in the US and China.
US sales were marshaled by good results for GM's pickups, the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, which bumped the manufacturer's truck market share to 35.6 percent, up nearly three points from Q1 2014. Buick has seen healthy growth as well, with the Encore dominating its segment for the sixth month running.
It was China, though, that really bolstered GM's sales, as the company's efforts to top last year's record-setting 3.16 million units continued apace. Small SUV sales saw massive growth, with Encore, Chevrolet Trax and Captiva figures jumping 90 percent in Q3. Brand-wise, Chevrolet, Cadillac and Buick all saw sales gains in the PRC, with each recording double-digit year-over-year jumps. Cadillac sales alone were up 63 percent compared to the first nine months of 2013.
