Long time RWD, but after gettting the '96 850 T5, I liked it so much I bought a '98 S70 T5 5-spd. Both have been rock solid and have never needed anything but home fixing, like the 240s. T-belts are pretty easy, PNP, CV joint boots are a little something new. Still, the 240 is king for comfort and the right road feel, but the newer ones are fine too. As long as you can hold the T5s on the road at full throttle.
