My girlfriend was rear ended last week, most likely her civic will get written off by the insurance co. She expressed intrest in a 245, I've had a few 240's over the years and am pretty familiar with what to look for in condition. Just wanted to ask for other opinions on which year to get. I've owned an 84 244, 86 245 and my mom curently drives a super clean 90 245. I drove it this summer while back home and it was pretty slick, Been looking at some locally on craigslist and the local volvo club site. Big selection of years although not alot of manual trans cars, feel free to tell me what year you would opt for if given the choice.

Thanks.
Chris

p.s. my girlfreind was fine, here car was pretty crunched though.
