S123 230TE Sept 1985. 151K miles :p
Rust in the normal places, not exactly been looked after for awhile however everything works and it starts first click of the key. All I've done so far is wash it and take out the carpets and rear seat to give it a decent clean.
There is a hole in the join on the exhaust downpipes and a couple of bulbs out however once I fix those I don't see any MOT issues. I'm just not sure what I'm going to do with it :confused:

They were in their time the nicest finished estate car in the world.

It's a babe Blobcat - a rusty old babe admittedly but a babe none the less. Please give it a chance to survive - you are a keeper of this sort of car, not an owner - once you have given it a home you accept responsibility for it, you owe it a duty of care, you commit to do your best for it, to pass it on to another generation.

You should not ask what you are going to do with it but rather, what it is going to do with you...
