I bought a '93 940 wagon after owning several 240 sedans and wagons. As a wagon the 940 is the best of the lot for many reasons. The only real negative is the coupling of the very reliable 4 cyl. red block engine with the very reliable and rugged AW71L tranny. The result is good response in city driving but low passing power at speeds fron 45mph up to 65mph and then moderate power above that. The car will cruise at 80mph just fine.

From what I hear of the 960, that engine will give good service if it is well maintained.
