Lumina APV
Liberty, 02/16/2004
1991 Chevrolet Lumina Minivan 3dr Minivan
My partner and I travel lots, and we
needed a van for cargo and people
hauling.I like the bucket seats
becouse the seating is the most
flexable than other minivans. I do
most repairs myself, and this is one
of the most easiest minivans to
service. The 3.1 V6 is underpowered,
but has good city fuel mileage. I
haven't had any major problems, yet.
The rear liftgate door … is hard to
close, and there's a few squeeks and
rattles here and there. The low front
step in height makes it possable for
my grandmother to get in and out
without help, unlike other vans and
suvs. I'm happy with the APV. I'll own
another one, but with the 3.8 engine.

1991 Chevrolet Lumina Minivan 3dr Minivan
This is an extremely functional minivan
for children. However, it has very
little space behind the seats at the
back for transporting other items
(groceries included). This minivan has
a fiberglass body which never rusts.
We had to replace the engine &
transmission at 145000 miles. The
center console broke at about 160k
miles. We have seen other Lumina APV's
with … this same problem with less
miles. The radio died at 170k miles.
The heater fan went out at 210k miles,
the drivers side door outside handle
mechanism broke at about 180k miles.
The second engine went out at 240k
miles. No longer worth replacing, but
the body still looks almost like new.

I like the aerodynamics of it. just
need more reliable water pumps. It
goes through them like nothing.

"One of the oldest rides still on the road."

1990 Chevrolet Lumina Minivan 3dr Cargo Minivan
My wife was driving this 1990 Chevrolet Lumina APV when we met back in 2002. To make a long story short, I am now the principle driver of this soon to be antique while she gets around in a 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe. Ours is one of several still on the road in this area alone, so I bet there are a good many still out there across the country. Sure, I have had to make the expected repairs and … all, but this Chevy is still going strong with 164,000 original miles on her. I am going to drive this van until the wheels fall off. I am presently looking for a bumper snicker that says "Don't Laugh, It's Paid For!"
