Value is dropping fast and my will do his best to make that faster. I'd rather cash out now while it is still worth a decent amount and get a car I really like that I don't have to worry about quite so much if I park it at Asda or have a muddy terrier in the back.
Warranty just finished too.

In a recent survey, 8 out of 10 dogs preferred at Volvo 240 GL estate in beige with blue carpets. The 1985 carpets are softer.....

I have heard that divorce lawyers are quite expensive. Plus the dog is more fun than the 70! Wanted a 90 when I got it but the 70 was more 'sensible'.

The Lux with work to do. Right colour, right engine, right price, hopefully a pleasant amount of fix-up to do.
Can't wait. I will be on here a lot over the next few weeks I expect. I will post photos of progress.
