240s were NEVER cheap. They were actually quite pricey. I've always thought they were discontinued because they were expensive to build. And there is a reason for the suspension design, Swedish roads. Get nice firm suspension with large sway bars and great tires and take a wet or gravel strewn road a little fast. Its all over if the tires can't adhere. Or fit that 245 with same enhancements, load up the rear with cargo and see the rear bumper become the leading edge in a wet curve.
