Buick Park Avenue 1990-1997
In the Netherlands, 114 Park Avenues of the first type have been registered (as of March 16, 2018). The registry is no longer actively maintained due to the sale of my Park Avenue. The last update is from April 29, 2019. If you have a change for me, I will gladly adjust it.
​
In 1989 Buick showed the Park Avenue Essence, a concept car that was introduced in a modified form in the summer of 1990 and until October 1996 was delivered. It was Buick's largest front-wheel drive model. The first Park Avenue type was also the last model that was officially delivered in the Netherlands. GM chose to only officially supply Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe. The model was followed in the USA by a completely new Park Avenue of which only 10 are driving in the Netherlands.
​
The name Park Avenue has long been the most luxury variant of the Electra. From 1990, it is an independent model. The model is supplied with one motor, the 3.8 V6 with and without supercharger (the Ultra).
​
of the 107 registered type 1 Park Avenues there are 65 with a valid MOT. The average age of the drivers is currently 58, just like in 2018. In total (type 1 + 2) there are only 3 who drive on LPG, which is understandable, because 1 in 10 is easily achievable. Most common color is blue with 49 pieces. There are 22 gray and 26 red versions, 14 green, 4 purple and 4 beige models, 2 white and 1 black.
