Huh. I've always thought the manual steering in a early 140 is the best of the old Volvos, save perhaps, a 544.

The addition of power steering, not so much.

A BMW 2002Tii? And you say a 140 box is rare?

And, tighter suspension works wonders with steering feel, which, based on replies about the 142 you are considering, you'd end up with a well set up car in that regard.

Seriously, I think you'll be happy with it as is, should you get it. A '71 142e really is a wonderful thing.
