This car is in pretty nice shape with only 137k on it (as slow as it is, there is little chance to get the miles racked up). The problem is it handles like three kinds of crap. When i search this group, i see a lot of stuff for gasoline 240s, but the diesel is ignored. If I were to guess, I'd say the engine is way too heavy for the chassis. You have to put future turns in your DayPlanner this thing is so unresponsive. It travels to the outside of any turn and needs to be constantly reigned in. Any irregularities in the road during a turn send it even further to the outside the planned arch. The tires are good and it rides nicely, which makes me think the shocks are okay. Since there is no slop in the steering, I'm having trouble thinking something is worn out. I'm thinking different springs? Torsion bars? A really big vertical stabilizer? Any input or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
