The Buick Wildcat is a full-size car that was produced by Buick from the 1963 to 1970 model years. Taking its name from a series of 1950s Buick concept cars, the Wildcat replaced the Invicta within the "junior" B-body Buick sedan range. Serving as the higher-performance full-size Buick, the Wildcat was slotted between the LeSabre and the larger C-body Electra. Following two generations of the model line, the Wildcat was replaced by the Buick Centurion for 1971.
As of 2025 Q4, 9 BUICK WILDCAT were still registered in the UK — 7 licensed and on the road, plus 2 declared SORN (off-road). The figures come from official DVLA vehicle licensing data.
