I found another 240 I may buy and I was questioning something I thought was odd. The person selling the car told me over the car had manual windows, power locks, air conditioning, and heated seats. I thought all 240's in the later years had power windows. I have had three 240's over the many years and never had one had manual windows. Also this potential purchase is going to be sort of funny because I talked to the seller over the phone and my wife is going to inspect, test drive, and negotiate for the car. She is to verify everything he told me over the phone and offer the price I outlined. We will see if she gets the car. I'll report back later tomorrow night.

It is normal for a '90 to have manual windows. I would convert them over to power. You can get all of the stuff form a recycleing yard and do the conversion your self in a weekend. If this is something that you would like to do, PM me and I will give you more details. It's really not that hard of a job and it was well worth it. Good luck and happy bricking.

1988 244 DL + Virgos, and Power Windows, 1983 244 Turbo +Intercooler

The other responses verified that manual windows were available through '89.

I know that '91's sold in the US came ONLY with power windows.

I didn't buy my '90 new, so all I can say is that mine has power windows.

Someone on the Board will know for sure.

My '88 DL had, My '86 DL Has, and my '87 DL Have manual/crank windows, heated front seats, and air conditioning. So what you are hearing/seeing is not odd at all. Good luck.

paddlingbrick,
I have a 1989 240 dl that has manual windows, air and heated seats.

well then it isn't odd at all then. all of the 240's I've had, had power windows so I assumed all of them came with power windows. thanks for the replies. We will see today if the sale goes through and see how good a negotiator my wife is.

apparently the car was repainted yet looked pretty good. there were several interior issues although minor. the car ran well and the air was cold. However, the owner didn't take my wife's offer.
