Could you post some pictures of the car and would it be possible to put a new MOT on it? But then advertise it for a bit more. It would greatly improve the sale prospects with pictures and a fresh mot? Just hope someone has the cash before Christmas! Good luck with the sale. James.

Thanks for the advice James but I would rather it went as is at a fair price.If it doesn't sell then I will scrap it.

No don't scrap it

I don't know the current scrap value but is it low? As my Sisters boyfriend used to collect cars to scrap. Thought he said 70 pounds a tonne a while ago? His favourite was an old volvo estate

But it would be such a shame!! Another possible option is ebay? Come on someone must want a 240!! James

Ah... For £250??? Are you people serious?
I have owned two Tors. I'd snap your hand off if my situation was different.
If I had room I'd take it, great car. Good luck.

Bargain!

I was seriously considering this as it would make an ideal candidate for an LPG conversion, I guess at such a good price theres no time for "considering" anything... you just gotta appear with the money!

Just as well really... It would mean selling both of my 940s!

I might have swapped you an estate for set of galaxies!
