Just for yucks and info,
Here is the link to the page which lists many cars CD.
http://rc.opelgt.org/indexcw.php
First column is the Cd coefficient of drag, next the surface area (units unknown but suspect sq.meters), then the total drag, area times the CD.

The 240 was typical if maybe a bit less than average for its era, but the new S80s and 60s are quite svelte! (In drag, not in Kgs.)
