I can think of one - music and lyrics - they pass an 850 and a 240 within seconds of each other parked at the side of the road. Steve

Incidentally, there's a blue 240 estate in Threads. You can see it in the background half way up the kerb with its doors open when the character Jimmy Kemp is running through the streets of Sheffield after the initial attack.

Yes, you're right, I'd forgotten that one (yes, I'm into the apocalyptic film gendre!) and with that in mind- I've thought of another. in the drama series "the last train" some of the survivors shelter inside a sunk-to-the axles 240 estate- maybe a red one?-from a pack of feral dogs. yes it may be 40 years in the future but of course a volvo brick is still going to be in one piece. |

oh, and another one- the simply brilliant 1991 gangster flick "goodfellas".
A silver 240 saloon is featured towards the end of the movie driven by Ray liotta's character's wife |

Monty Python movie.
I just thought of another one. Monty Python's movie the meaning of life I think it was. In the scene where they have been with the grim reaper at someone's house they all leave in car's and one is a 245. I can't remember who was driving it though perharps someone else remembers.

now this one's really obscure.I was watching one of those re-runs of a car is reborn with Mark Evans,where he restores a jaguar E-type.Anyway some bloke was at a car show talking about his Mark 1 Cortina and in the background and also reflected in the Cortina's paint was a shiny red Volvo 240.looked like it had corona alloys.
