Blue estate in Hop (my two year old, honest!). You first see it in a driveway, then there is a '20 years later' caption and it's still there looking like new.

240 estate used in Mythbusters if that counts?! Plus Adam Savage had one as his first car!

theres probably loads in mythbusters... i love it! the one i remember is when grant radio controls one to crash into a wall.

however i did not know adam had one as his first car! thats epic!!

they did a myth on volvo bumpers about them exploding and taking someones leg off but it was totally busted. they used several 740s for that
