Built from 1974 to 1993, the 240 was renowned for its safety, robustness, and simple, easily-repairable design. It wasn’t flashy, but it was dependable, and that built a loyal following. These cars were often the go-to choice for families, adventurers, and anyone who needed a vehicle that just worked, year after year. Today, the 240 has become something of a cult classic. Enthusiasts appreciate its boxy aesthetic, its mechanical straightforwardness, and the sheer joy of driving a car built to last.
