well my '87 245 is finally starting to act its age. it seems that new problems pop up every other day, and they're starting to do a real number on my parents' wallet as well as mine (we split the expenses right down the middle). just last week a new alternator and new power steering rack cost a little more than half of what the kelly blue book value is. my parents are thinking that it might be time to let it go, and as much as i hate to admit it, i agree. ive been keeping my eye open for a 240 throughout the sacramento area, but no luck so far. no such luck with any of used car websites like cars.com or carmax.com, or any website for that matter. im really reluctant to go the ebay route because both my parents and i have heard a few negative things about fraud and whatnot. if there is anything i should do instead of or in addition to watching the used car lots in the area, or if anyone knows of a late 240 sedan in the greater sacramento area, please let me know. thanks in advance.
