Hi my daughter happened to have one of those music channels on(Digibox)can't remember which one but I looked up to see kylie minogue in one of her videos and there was a rather nice looking 244 saloon in light blue,quite an old style maybe even a 144.The video kept going back to the start and each time an extra kylie was added dancing the same route but in a loop kinda thing so I looked a bit harder and while waiting for the lightblue saloon to reappear noticed a white 240 estate down a side road.
I'm not into kylie much but the song had the words "Oh baby come into my world".
So two 240's in one vid both in australia I think,come on someone cleverer than me put a link to it for all to see.It must be on the net somewhere?
Regards Brian.

Thank you Brian.

In the 1990 film "nuns on the run" Eric idle and Robbie Coltrane steal a toyota hilux pickup, they get chased by gangsters in a gold coloured 240 saloon

Just spotted a very nice 240DL estate on ITV2 just finished but still on ITV2+1 Film "The fourty year old virging" very funny,I think its gold but I only saw it in the night shots.It certainly shot off at speed when he tried to chase her on his bicycle,only thing is he then rode into the side of it straight into a billboard.
Regards Brian.

I posted this before the crash, but I shall post it again.
In the first Sweeney movie, a small time gangster and one of Jack Reagan's snouts has a chauffeur driven 244. I believe the driver is his minder.
