I decided not to sell my two, and I'm buying the one that I wanted four years ago. It's a 1983 red 242 Turbo with a manual transmission. Pictures will come. I'm getting it for cheap and rightfully so, the owner decided to stop driving it when the wireing harness went bad. Luckily I found a replacement harness to go into it. I don't know why I'm going through with this as I don't need another Volvo, other then I told the guy four years ago that I wanted the car, and he's selling it for next to nothing. It will be a project. I may just get it running well and then sell it to my uncle. Who knows.

Man I think its expensive to have two cars, I dont know how all you multiple vehicle people afford to insure,drive, maintain multiple vehicles.

That sounds awesome! I always liked those 242s.

I hope to own two cars someday. It can't be that bad..since you drive each one less, the maintenance should be less as well. And that way, if one is out of comission, you have another! Plus, old MBs can be addicting considering the deals you can get on them

I think it's the Spring Thing- I go thru the same thing every year- at one point I had three, now I have two. Good luck with your purchase.
