it is not a 86 model, it is a 1984 model The L24 was a 2,393 cc (2.4 L; 146.0 cu in) engine produced from 1969 through 1984. It produces 130 PS (128 bhp; 96 kW) and the version with twin side draught SU Carburettors produces 150 PS (148 bhp; 110 kW). Bore and stroke is 83 mm × 73.7 mm (3.27 in × 2.90 in). A single carburetor version of the same engine was also standard in the Laurel sedan (240L) for various export markets, in the years 1982-1984.
Agreed. Not 86. My dad had this car. It was a 1984 model, released late 1983. Very soft riding, felt heavy. But at high speeds, the engine was LOUD. No sound dampening.
