the 700/900 cars are geenrally not as attention craving as the 200s. Both have a similar reliability. I would not hesitate to go with a 700/900 car, wit hthe exception of the 16v 4-cyl B234F. i have a 240 B230, and a 940 B234F, stay away from that engine! It is a major pain to take care of the interferance head with a very risky timing design. They are rare though. Just buy anything with a B230F.
