The Cadillac Seville nameplate was produced for five generations between the 1976 and 2004 model years, offering midsize luxury and premium appointment. Now, this one-family-owned example from the mid-‘80s has changed hands during an online auction.

This particular example, a 1985 model, hails from the final model year of the second generation. As such, it boasts eye-catching styling with squared-off lines and a boxy front end. The front fascia includes squared headlight clusters and a large rectangular grille, as well as plenty of chrome trim. The profile view reveals a set of 15-inch wire wheels and whitewall tires, while the shoulder line falls away at an easy arc towards the notched rear end.
