1985 with 90 000 km vs. a 1990 with 170 000 km 200

posted by  someone claiming to be wants the best 240 on  Wed Aug 6 17:52 CST 2003 [RELATED]

hello all,

well, a quick request for advice from members of this informative message board.....i'm looking to buy a 240 and have narrowed it down to two cars....

The first is a 1985 with only 90 000 KM - not miles....the exterior is mint, the engine is clean and there are service records for brakes/calipers/regular rust-proofing/oil changes etc....The interior is decent but a little worn.....

The second is a 1990 DL with 170 000 KM - it is in very good condition - with good maintenance, minimal rust and a nicer interior - ac/heated seats/cassette deck etc all in working order.......

Question......Which one do I buy?
p.s. i'm looking to get three solid years out of either with minimal maintenance
thanks.......
