atom ◊ 2013-06-12 21:41	I thought so too but it looks like a 240 by the doorhandles and 240 got näbbhuven (beakhood)in 1984 and in 1984 they also got the fender mounted turn indicators not seen here. Perhaps they got some different spec cars in the UK? There is also some extra chrome around the wheel arches? -- Last edit: 2013-06-12 21:44:38
