I've had my 1992 SE (pretty much identical to the variant in GT7) for 10 years. Currently misfiring and not maintaining idle, but finding time to diagnose is easier said than done. I love it. As mentioned above, it won't quite hold up to modern standards, but realistically, it does a lot better than the majority of other cars that're nearly 40 years old. It's an easy enough car to live with - I know people here in the UK that daily them - I did with mine for a year. If you take the bike rack off, the fuel economy isn't terrible either (if it's fuel injected).
Very strong bets on a cracked distributor cap judging by own experience. If it isn't a genuine Bosch, replace it anyway.
Add me to that list and raise the stakes by being here in Santa Claus land. Rain, snow, or whatever heat our summer has to offer, it's been my go-to car for doing customer trips at work because it gets through everything. The bad side is that if you get something with that much ground clearance stuck it's not coming away without some kind of heavy machinery.
It always wanted to be a race car when it grows up.
Scorpius is a brilliant choice for a 240, after all it was made for it. My winter wheels are genuine Virgos, the famous "Turbo wheel" although it really debuted on the GLT, also in black as the finish was beyond any help so I got them painted to fit the black and white scheme. Then there's the Corona as shown on the car in the first post, and that's pretty much it for the holy trinity of 240 wheels.
