option on a 164 in my area 140-160

What year is it?

The #1 weak point in my book is the automatic tranny, although the
M400/M410s usually need some bearings and become noisy at about 100,000
miles or so. Mine has been noisy for a long time (10 years or so) but still
works OK.

They have pretty good power but use more gas than a 140. Some say that
the heavier engine makes them handle poorly but I am happy enough with
mine and suspect it will be even better with sway bars installed.
(I have them but have quite a number of higher priority projects at the
moment.)
