The 240 has a number of characteristics that a potential owner should know about, such as the famous (or infamous) blower motor; the flame trap; the big plug in the head; and many more. I find them endearing personality quirks.

One important thing is that the car will probably be good for 300k to 400k miles without major repairs. And you'll walk away from almost any accident, within reason.

1985 was the last year for a turbo 240.

The car has the right amount of power to get you safely to work and home again and to transport your family.
