Those are excellent cars! Basically a more luxurious, refined 240 with a turbo. Originally developed from the 740 chassis which evolved from the 240.

Will last as long as a 240 if properly maintained. Maybe longer as the engines are stronger than the 240's because of a few improvements. Then again, the turbo might cut longevity...Also more rust resistant than a 240. Personally, I have never seen one with rust. Very well built car...

No wiring harness or ECU problems as far as I know. Electrical system is newer and supposedly better than a 240.

Both the 940 and the 240 have their good points. Depends on what you are looking for...940's are more modern, ride better, quieter etc. overall a more luxurious ride. 240's are more communicative to the driver, simpler and probably a little cheaper to maintain.

I believe the 94 and 95 940's don't have the turbo badges. Volvo used a silly level 1 and level 2 designation for the 940 in those years. Related to level of equipment. All level 2's are turbos. Not sure about level 1, but I think most, if not all, are NA.

IMHO - Do some research on the 900 board, check out the 700/900 FAQ too for problems etc.

Even if it is mint, 10K is way too much for that car IMO!!
