1990 200 turbo 10v avant

[LL - NY]

10V turbo Avants aren't all that rare.

The disadvantages compared to the 20VT wagons are:

Less power
-CIS-E, so lots of vacuum operated controls subject to rubber aging. i.e.
less reliable
-less effective ECU diagnostics (although simpler to understand what's going
on if the
  DIY'er in U is not afraid of electronics)
-less effective two pass intercooler
-less effective brakes (G60's vs. UFO's) but MUCH less expensive to maintain
(brakes)
-smaller wheelhouses, 91 20VT's have flares lacking in the earlier cars
-somewhat less pretty wood trim compared to a 20VT's interior.

LL - NY, having left the 10VT fold and joined the ranks of AAN's.
