2 years prior to selling the 240 I bought a 1996 940 SE LPT auto estate for £250. Use this for work. Been reliable and liked the creature comforts of AC, (only just sorted) and ABS brakes. When I test drove it couldn't believe how much quieter and smooth it was compared to the 240. Bought it straight away!

Good luck on your quest for a 240. I do like them!

Thank you for the kind words, Yes I really miss my 940, it be seen on my channel, the link is below. The car was like apart of the family.

Hopefully I can find a decent 240 to fill the gap. cheers
