Vehicle Description
1985 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz
History
The Eldorado also refers to El Dorado, the mythical South American
"Lost City of Gold" that fascinated Spanish explorers. This was the
last year of the 8th edition of the Cadillac Eldorado. Powered by a
fuel injected 4.1-liter V8 coupled to a 4-speed automatic
transmission with electronic overdrive, this drivetrain provided
power, as well as economy. Luxury was no longer defined by sheer
size, but comfort, drivability, and meeting the EPA emission
standards.
In October of 1985 this car was purchased new from Titus Cadillac,
Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. Since this time only 48,760 miles were
clocked.
Exterior
This meticulously cared for car displays a beautiful exterior
finish, Dark Sandstone Metallic. Minimal scratching or marring is
seen. This Biarritz edition features a brushed stainless-steel roof
covering the front passenger compartment... A styling cue taken
from the 1957/58 Eldorado Brougham. The rear half of the roof is
covered with a Dark Sandstone heavily padded landau vinyl top,
accented with "opera" lights. Fit and finish is straight and true.
Cadillac spoked wheel covers add to the overall "glitz" of the
vehicle.
Interior
The interior features "pillowed" style "tufted" leather seating in
tan finish. All seating shows normal wear for age. Dash and
instrumentation is original, and no chips or cracks are evident on
dash. The steering wheel is in good condition, and adjustable up
and down. Headliner is free of any blemishes, and in very good
condition with no fading or tears. The car is equipped with power
steering, power brakes, power driver seat, climate control, cruise
control, power windows, power mirrors, and an AM/FM Cassette
player. The plush beige carpeting throughout, is in generally clean
and unstained condition. All power options are operational.
Drivetrain
A 4.1-liter V8 powers a 4-speed plus electronic overdrive
transmission, that offers accelerating power as well as maintaining
fuel efficiency on long trips. An underside view shows drivetrain
to be leak free, and no signs of rusting.
Documentation and Extra Items
The vehicle documentation includes the original build sheet,
service and owner's manuals, Gold Key cassette, and member card. A
spare tire and jack are neatly camouflaged in the trunk with custom
carpet overlays. A fine example of a retro 80's styling, combined
with a Luxury theme.
Stop by to give this a look, and you can pop in your Flock of
Seagulls cassette, and cruise in "gnarly" style!
