Need advice from everyone and anyone 200

posted by  someone claiming to be bud on  Thu Jan 17 17:34 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Wow...keep those opinions coming. It's giving me alot to think about. So far, lots of votes for newer 240's. My only concern is this...in Atlanta...I need to be able to "jump" out in traffic. Will I be O.K. in a regular 240 ('90 - 93) or should I focus on the 740/940 turbo (wagon/sedan). Do they make a 240 ('90 - '93) Turbo?. I know...more probs. with the turbo, but is it worth it???

How easy is it to work on the turbo models, not including the turbo itself.

Also, from what I can tell, I need to make sure I get the "bullet proof" B230 engine. Nothing but rave reviews about these engines so far. Is that the same engine in the 740/940?? including turbo versions.

Sorry for all the questions, being a newbie here ya know. Just trying to do my homework before I make a decision.


Thanks for all the help so far...I'm learning alot.

Bud
