I'm gonna make this short. A person close to me asked me to look at this 82 240D for sale. Since I have a 240D he thought I should look at it before he invested time and potential money into it. Well the pic speakes for itself. The body and interior need some TLC but the motor..... yeah as you can see it has a 617 turbo on it. I was instantly sold and well he bought the car.


It totally outperforms my car as far as the motor is concerned. My car is in better shape but this thing will do laps around mine. It puts out about 5 pounds of boost with the wastegate disconnected. A total pleasure to drive.
