If it is anything like my old RWD 244GL I will like it. I might even be able to stretch it legs with a quick run to Montreal and Quebec City in a couple of weeks.

I got a big pile of parts for it, waiting for me... its legs up are on the lift... I need to get off my wife's ricer in the meantime...

A nice lady from the Bronx bought it to drive her kids to school. Maybe I shouldn't have gotten her money. Oh well!!!

V90's engine issues are more closely related to the 850 (non-turbo) than to any other car: both are whiteblocks, same generation of Motronic, several front-end parts are actually interchangeable. Transm are essentially the same. Lighting is similar, SRS (same), PCV very similar to non-turbo 850.

They differ that V90 is RWD and rear-suspension is multi-link, single-leaf mounted transversely. 850 is coil springs.
