1993 Lumina APV 3800

1993 Chevrolet Lumina Minivan 3dr Minivan
Have owned vehicle for 13 years. 3800 has plenty of pep and gets solid 20 MPG day in, day out. Has done yeoman duty for us, moving kids back and forth to college, carrying lots of people, hauling building materials including 4x8 sheet inside. 7-seat interior is flexible; seats install and remove easily. Initially weird styling has worn better than many other 1993 cars. Plastic body … panels don't rust or dent. A good solid vehicle.
"One of the oldest rides still on the road."

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!"

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.
