It may be a 1983 Buick Regal.
But I'm not sure about the year...

I agree, it's definitely a Regal. I can't say what year that is, but '83's the right era (was it '81 that the G-bodys got redesigned?)

As far as I know they were redesigned in 1980.

The years for this model were 1981-83. The 1980 model looked more like the 1978-79 model but with quad headlights.

He's right! The Regal was REALLY redesigned in 1981! 1980 models have the same body as 1978 and 79 ones.

Actually, the were redesigned in 1978 as part of GM's "downsizing" project. They were facelifted (not redesigned) in 1981 and stayed very much the same until 1987 when they were redesigned as newer front-wheel-drive models.

Made for EU due to the amber turn signals.

Yes, I see amber indicators. Otherwise, I would see three lights on each side plus the illuminated sidemarker.

Is there a red foglight at the bumper here? :think:
