The car they use to illustrate the article was described by the vendors as "original". If so, then it must be unique as it uses 1979-81 tail lamps and roof-mounted radio antenna with a post-1983 (I think) front end.

B23E and B230E used K-Jetronic which is essentially mechanical; the last models used Bosch LH2.something. B23E's developed 140BHP while B230Es put out 133BHP

I suspect that the 240 mavens will have a field day at the BKV tomorrow! Especially if the Practical Classics car turns up.
