If that were a wagon, I'd be in trouble. Looks better than my rusty 1993 240.

Except if you look closely there is a lot of rust breaking out around the usual areas of the windshield. Strange thing is the LHS of the car looks really clean for rust and only some weird repair to the rear fender trim, but the LHS has rust starting on the front door and the lower trim pealing off, as well as rust over the rear wheel arch and rear part of the rear rocker. That will add a big chunk to the repair costs. There is also a couple of warning lights on the dash, but can't read what they say.

Having said all that, with the price of 240's these days in good condition it may make sense financially if bought cheap enough.
