240s are a great and durable workhorse, but I'd also recommend the 7-series Volvos, which are a great value, and have more usable space. If I had to drive a gasser, and wasn't hip to MBs, I'd be driving either an Audi A4 wagon or a Volvo 740 wagon.

Are the Volvo 240 series a good car? I think they are 4 cylinders. I seem to recall these being one of the high mileage gassers Friend of mine is looking around 1983-1989 vintage. Are they easy to work on? Any stories?
