Hey elchivito,
I agree with your thoughts. A mate said to me the other day though, "a 240 is just one pot short of a 617, a bit like their drivers being a slice short of a loaf". He was referring to how slow they were & we only have N/A 617's over here to compare them with!! Please dont think I am have a go at you in any way though!! Let the truth be known, a 617 is just a 240 with an extra pot, well the early ones were!! I have many friends that get a new locally manufactured car every 3 years, I just laugh at them all the way to the bank. Good Luck with your 240 !!!!!
