The 86Eldorado Biarritz is becoming an exceedingly collectible example of the wreath & crest marque. Finding an all original barn-find with under 50K miles is even rarer.
The downsizing of the two-door Eldorado and four-door Seville took center-stage for Cadillac this year. It lost 16.3 inches for the Eldorado and 332 pounds of weightand continued to use a V-8 rather than switch to a V-6: Cadillac engineers simply took the 4.1L V-8 and turned it sideways to bolt to a four-speed overdrive automatic transaxle.
Such adaptability was built in to the aluminum-block, iron-head overhead-valve 4.1L (also known as the HT-4100 and by its RPO code LT8).
Cadillac initially intended the HT-4100 to power only its new generation of transverse front-wheel-drive cars as early as 1983, but when snags within GM delayed that program at about the same time the cries of death to the designer of the V-8-6-4 started pouring in, Cadillac engineers adapted the 4.1L to fit traditional rear-wheel-drive chassis, simultaneously avoiding the temporary shelving of the HT-4100 and replacing the V-8-6-4. The HT-4100 debuted in 1982 with throttle-body electronic fuel injection and just 125hp. By 1986, with a slightly higher compression ratio, it was up to 130hp, but the HT-4100 suffered nearly as poor a reputation as its predecessor. Customers complained of poor acceleration, overheating issues, rod bearing problems and intake manifold gasket failures, among many other issues. Cadillac was apparently slow to respond to customer complaints. Not counting the special 1987 multi-port fuel-injected Allante engine, more power didn't arrive until 1988 with the 4.5L version (HT-4500) and then 1991 with the 4.9L version (HT-4900). The reliability problems seem to have persisted in part until Cadillac replaced the HT-4900 with the Northstar V-8s in the mid-1990s.
Aside from the V-8, the Eldorado boasted a driver information center in the dashboard that displayed engine readouts and current fuel economy as well as all the luxury appointments associated with a Cadillac.
