Welcome to the club. Glad you joined us! I recommend some reading if you haven't done so already:

I have a '92 SSE. Last August I bought a '05 SE with the intent of using it to replace the '92 (300,000+ miles and I'm getting too broken down to take car of it properly). I followed some of the suggestions contained in the Care and Feeding section.

Post photos of your "new" ride. We would really like to see your Bonneville. - BC

Thanks I will definitely do some of that reading. I am pretty impressed with the car it has 216000 miles on it but does not seem to have that. Car was always garage kept and I really like the car.

Welcome! These cars run forever if properly taken care of, miles are not usually anything to be scared of.
