I've had this '95 855 5 speed with 110,000 miles for a month now. Love it. It joined a year-old '89 245 autobox with 130,000 miles; an '87 244 5 speed with 190,000 miles; an 81 245 5 speed with 216,000 miles (to be gone very soon -- rusty); and until June, an '83 245 5 speed with 230,000 miles (also succumbed to rust).

These 240s have been great. The 855 is so much more sophisticated, but in that sophistication lies potential torment, I fear. But I sure love to drive the 855 5 speed...
