James: ~ about three years back I started to look for a usable classic and came across a 240 estate- not really considered these cars but now I fully understand why people say “the best car I have owned” I can’t fault it and the MOT inspector loves it “a pleasure to work on he says” I have the 1988 2.0 Litre injection that is free from any high tech complications and is in fact quite basic it terms of maintenance- not the fastest but it laps the miles without problems and plenty of style!
I’ve been right through the car in terms of maintenance & rustproofing and I can see these cars becoming sought after more & more with little or no depreciation!
Buy the best you can is my basic advice-
Good Luck with the potential purchase
Bob
