Opinions please.,... 200

I used to own a '93 850 that had 178,000 when I bought it and 202,000 when I sold it. I loved it - it was reliable, dependable and real good looking. More expensive than a 240? Definately. I love both 850s and 240s but I think I can sum up the advantages and disadvantages with one fact. When I sold my 850 the buyer was going to give me $4000 for it. He however had an '87 240 he wasn't going to need anymore with 135,000 miles. He ended up giving me $3500 AND the 240 that had 67,000 miles less than the 850.
You've got your pros and cons but basically it just boils down to how much you want to spend on your vehicle.
