Looks in decent nick.
I assume the driver was nearby as the keys are in the boot lock.

The design didn't change much over the years, I had a 1986 Volvo 240 that pretty much looked the same and they were still making them in 1993.

Yes I like those too. On the 240 series, from 74 on, only the front and rear was changed, the centre section was the same. That's a Lancashire registration too, TC

I used to have a boss in the 1990s who loved Volvos and the ones he drove to work were all that shape too.
