1984 | Cadillac | Eldorado Biarritz Convertible | 20,282 (Warranted) | £12,100 + buyers premium | |
Description:In Brief:
On the Surface: This 1984 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz presents itself in a timeless Cotillion White finish, replicated by a matching white leather interior. Originally delivered in the United States in 1984, it crossed the Atlantic to the UK in September 2010. As one of a limited production run of just 3,300 units destined for the US market, this Eldorado Biarritz stands as a rare marque. Maintenance: Accompanied by its original Cadillac bookpack, this Eldorado comes with meticulous documentation, including the 1984 Eldorado Owner’s Literature book, Warranty Information booklet, Owner’s Record booklet, and a Maintenance Schedule. The latter holds service records dating back to 1985, with entries at 3,218 miles and 18,531 miles in 2020. The mileage of 20,282 is guaranteed by the UK MOT history and the service history provided. History: This Eldorado carries with it invoices totaling nearly £10,000. Additional paperwork within the folder include a 1984 Cadillac chassis and body electrical wiring circuit diagrams for the Eldorado and Seville wall chart and the original purchase invoice from 1984 where it was purchased by an Ernest Green of Osprey, Florida, who acquired the car for $37,881.60. The Model: A notable chapter in Cadillac’s history unfolded with the downsizing of the Eldorado in 1979, responding to fuel price increases and evolving consumer preferences. Shedding over 1,000 pounds and shortening by 20 inches, the 1979 Eldorado emerged solely as a two-door coupe. In 1984, the model welcomed a significant milestone—the return of a convertible, marking the first since the 1976 iteration. Featuring plush leather seats, climate control, cruise control, electric windows, a power hood, and an electronic boot catch this Eldorado is way ahead of anything made in the UK during this period. Sale Insight: The decision to part with this beauty comes from the vendor’s loss of garage space, offering a unique opportunity for a buyer to inherit this beautiful, low mileage example of an Eldorado Biarritz. |
