700 vs. 200....what are the advantages? 700

posted by  someone claiming to be Steve Bier on  Tue Dec 30 06:09 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Well, the time has come. I'm bidding adieu to my 84' 244. While it has served me well, I'd like to go for something a wee bit newer...and my Saturn just isn't cutting it. I've found two bricks...one is an 87' 744 GLE (automatic--cannot drive a stick), and the other is an 88' 244GL. Mileage and such out of the way, which is the better car, and why? Both are the same price (around $1100, give or take), and both are one-owner cars. Does the 700 have more substance to it than thr 200? I once heard someone refer to the 200 as the "Ford Escort" of the Volvo series. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Steve
