Thanks all for the kind welcome!

@mss91: Stats on my car...
• 1993 240 Classic Wagon (#1549/1600)
• 2.3-liter 4-cylinder engine (114-hp if memory serves)
• 3-speed automatic transmission with overdrive
• 151K miles (which if you know, is not much for these)
• Ruby Red with Black cloth
• Stock with the exception of a new audio head unit and an IPD rear sway bar
• Overall in good shape for its age, runs well and will only be looking smarter after the late summer/fall makeover is complete.

Not sure how familiar you are with the 240, I have a decent knowledge base though certainly learning more and more with ownership (and thanks to this forum's members), but they have a unique character both in appearance of course (in this age of swoopy design dictated by aerodynamics, gotta love the bricks!) and their driving style. They don't run swiftly (at least in stock form) but are champions of longevity!
