Hi Again,

Would post some pictures of some of my cars but not sure if it is acceptable as they are not Volvos (4 of them are but the rest may not be suitable?)

And dont want to upset anyone as being a newbie here.

Cheers M.D

Anyone found me a 240 auto Estate yet with a/c lol

Cash to burn here.

Today ( 15th ) we returned from an almost 3 week break in Cornwall with our touring caravan and a trip of about 1,000 miles in total and over the 3 weeks I have seen only 4 240's and they were all in Cornwall early in the holiday.

I saw one near the Geevor old tin mine on the 4th, a red estate. I waved but didn't see a response.

I don't actually remember details of the others we saw even though I thought I would.

None at all during all the motorway miles there and back.

The breeding programme must be gaining some successes then!

There is a red GL saloon in Bangor (NI) a right few times, usually around the RNLI station or close. In regular use and in very good nick.

Two days ago I saw a maroon saloon, DL I think, up beside Screwfix as well. First time I've seen this one though.

Actually spotted on 23-11-14 in Lidl's car park, Ferndown, Dorset, but only just remembered when I transferred some pictures off my phone this evening! Sorry!

I saw 2 within 10 minutes this afternoon!
Firstly I saw a G-reg (G889ALK I think) red estate with roofrack in Poole, Dorset and it certainly earns its keep looking at it. No picture though, sorry.

Next I saw this stunning GLT estate in West Moors, Dorset and had to turn around and stop and take pictures. (sorry about the quality, taken on my old phone!).
Its not one I have seen around here before but look forward to seeing again.

Spotted a late 240 GL estate today dark blue I think as it was dark
It was in tescos car park around 6 pm, nothing unusual about that except
It has a Q plate registration number.

Wonder why its a Q plate?
