loads of service history and the tailgate looks good too, even has the factory oil gauges and the boat load cover, may be worth a bid

good luck with your search

Just a quick note on the 240 in Donny....the pictures really do make the car look better than it is. It has pretty bad rust on the rear arches, and one cill, the tailgate is going in 2 places and the is a long quite deep scratch going across the front wing and O/S front door.

The miles are good though, and a pretty good history, so I suppose it depends what you`re after.

240`s do seem to have dried up a fair bit in the last month or so. I`d agree with the above post though, it`s worth travelling for the right car. If buying unseen though, make sure you view as many photos as you can, and ask plenty of questions over the phone/email.

Good luck in the search.

Extra pictures of the red 240;

Please note; I`m not trying to put anyone off buying this car, or stating how good/bad the car is. I just think it`s best to know as many details as possible when buying a car off eBay. These pictures are ones I requested from the seller when I was considering it.




EDIT; Please ignore the last one....Helvellyn....must have crept in the attachment without me knowing!

Certainly helpful seeing the extra pics. Looked a lot cleaner on the ebay ones and the rot wasn't obvious.
Why do many 240 estates develope the same patch of rust just under the rear wiper?

i cant belive that it went for £601 hope the buyer looked at it first!! thats a crazy price these old buses seem to be getting more popular at the moment!!
makes alarming mans look like a right old bargain.

Still looking for a 240 estate!

Getting sore eyes from looking at Ebay!

If anyone should happen to spot one in their local paper, etc, I'd be delighted if they'd e-mail me winegum1584@hotmail.co.uk

Thanks.
