And another Cornish 240 - beige/yellow coloured late 80's 240 estate, Chapel Porth beach. Full length roof rack.

Dropped into the local Netto about an hour ago. Parked up saw (heard lol) a red D24 est rumbling in. Failed on pic, soz

Had a chat to the chap. Turns out we bumped into each other a while back, think a pic and/or post will be here some where.

He had a blue D24 then, he gave up on it at 560,000Km's .

Went to Belgium to get this current one. 91' D24 shiny red and 360,000kms.

Said he will find a petrol one one day, but hard to find this side of the ogin.

Whilst I was cycling, I spotted a silver 240 saloon turning out of Crammaville Street in to Fairway in Grays, Thurrock, this evening. I spoke to the driver and suggested that he join the forum.

I spotted two this afternoon in Kingston Upon Thames - within 10 minutes of each other!

A silver GLT estate parked behind County Hall and a few miles down the road from there a white Torslander pulling out of side road

I didn't get the chance to take any pics unfortunately
