Curious; I've recently watched episodes of Wycliffe, Midsomer Murders and Inspector Morse, and one of the key characters in each was played by the same actor and in each programme his car was a 245 - not the same 245 I'll add.

These cars are everywhere!

The actor was David Haig MBE.

There is a 240 flanked by two W123 Mercs in Spy Game, guess those guys in Beirut know a good car when they see one!

Sad I know, but the opening credits of George and Mildred (unsure of what series but late, and being repeated at the moment on ITV 3) feature a Volvo estate.

Neighbours have nice cherry red (red interior) Volvo estate, only see from a 3/4 rear view, looks newish so a 245?

Last series for this show was made in 1979.
