A late model 240 might well suit him well; the historic vehicle premium probably precludes motor cars before about 1981 (well, people are probably starting to appreciate the 1982 cars' prices in anticipation), but late 80s vehicles are still reasonably cheap.

If it had to be a daily driver then our friend in PB wouldn't be able to get the cheap insurance, and the later cars won't be ULEZ compliant, but it would still be a lot of motor car for £2,000 to £3,000. I notice the seller has put it in the 'cars' rather than 'classic cars' section on eBay - which might be a bit dull as many potential buyers might not look there.
