Re: Save the 240's 200 all



You don't need to worry about the 240 ever going away.

You can still find decent 140s and 122s out on the road, and

they haven't been made for a lot longer than the 240s. About

twice as many 240s were made than 140s, and the 140s haven't

been new for almost 30 years yet a quick search of recycler.com

and classifieds2000.com shows 7 140s of various types and huge

numbers of 122s.

If you count 740s and 940s, and if you count that 2 or 3 times

as many of these were made than 122s and 140s, there will be

10-30 of these cars available on a random week in 2035.

I'd advise anyone interested in these cars to buy a few now,

keep them in good condition, and drive them forever. Buy a few

so that if a tree jumps out in front of one or you accidently

park it shiny side down, you can pull out one of the spares.
