I bought the LeSabre based on good reviews and they were right. Very reliable with only scheduled maint. Also plenty of room for a family of six without sitting in each other's laps or holding your breath.

Get Any Buick LeSabre Checked Out For Leaks

The 3.8 L engines are very decent and reliable however with cars this old you might have internal parts of the engine that need to be replaced. Had and upper and lower gasket replaced and antifreeze leaks resolved after purchase as is and dealer contributed to part of the repair. Also had issue with corroded headlight socket where I spent a 180 dollar diagnostic at a specialist. Outside of that my 2002 has held up past the 90k mark as a highway commuter. Minor issues are internal lights wearing out so expect slight defects with any used Buick Lesabre. It is the engine reliability that you are going for. Not a car expert and just my 2 cents worth and probably going the dealer route was not a good ideal.

Nice car, It sold me on Buicks. I don't believe I would purchase any other car, I have owned Fords, Chevrolet, Ford Van, Plymouth, Dodge and an Opel.
