C-reg dark blue 240 estate near Poole, Dorset this afternoon. Looked in great condition!

I spotted this around the corner from Braydon motors while buying my fuel pump, but far enough away that i don't think it was connected to the garage.

It seemed to have led quite a hard life and the paint as with most reds was going flat, but it had a certain charm to it i thought.

Very tidy H reg silver estate with ladders on the roof in rough common road canterbury/blean today. Whoever owns it seems to be taking good care of it..hj.

Not a patch on FoggyJames' recent spot....

A Blue 245 F??? ?FV, awaiting repair or euthanasia at Just Car Clinic in Keighley. I think it was F .....???

It appears to have driver's side rear end damage

The sun was in my eyes and I only had my telephone with me so pics are poor:

A rather eccentric W reg 240 which I used to see daily looks like it has been scrapped!!! It hasn't been licensed since August the owner didn't have a drive to squirel it away.

I used to love this car..hope this isn't the case
