Best year for 244? 200

Just stay away from the '75s with the B-20 engine. Nothing against the B-20 which was a fine engine, but the later B-21/23/230 engines were better.

For the most part, these cars are just as reliable from '76-'93, other then the wiring harness issues of the '81 - '87 models.

Parked on the side of my street:

1976 245 DL 289K miles (Blown Engine, but it will be running soon.)
1977 244 DL 300K+ miles
1980 245 DL 436K miles
1986 244 DL 138K miles
