Ach, well, *most* of the dash works now. Still don't have a temperature gauge (I can confirm from personal experience that an engine can overheat at -30). I do have a cunning low coolant light though.

Loads of 740s left here, the teenagers buy them, stick on bits of drainpipes in place of the exhaust and apply go-faster stripes. Funny as hell. Quite rare to see a 240 though, maybe they were more rust prone?

Just to put this into persepctive, I probably see 10 740s per day, and 1 240. So quite a few in any case.
