Used Car Roadshow on ITV4+1 at 6.30 are featuring a 262c. Just caught the end of the article so will catch it later. Jason Dawe reckons it was about twice the price of a 264 at that time (1981 W) at £3000 odd!! Is he on drugs?? At that time a Mk1 Cavalier 2000GLS saloon was just less than £6K!! Maybe I should write in and win £5............:cuckoo:
Must get a looky see at that. Do you know that the 262 is one of Jezza's all time wors cars.

Can't remember the last time I saw one........think it was in a book!! £6k for the best of them,he reckons. Not sure when it was filmed though,prob at least 2 years ago.

I watched that. I have never even heard or more to the point seen one. Rare cars. Looked in great condition though.
Don't think they came here in any great number tbh. Have only ever seen a couple.
I never watch TV so if you see when its on again let me know. They only brought 20 or so to all of Ireland.

Had to climb over a forest of 4 leaved clovers to see the last one and skidded on a rocking horse sh*t on my way before landing on my backside with a hen's tooth puncturing my left buttock!!

I know 2 people who had them here. One guy in my home city, Londonderry and a Volvo dealer (who has since passed) outside of Antrim near our main airport. Both were silver with black vynal roofs and black leather interior. It was Sam Mccourt the dealer who had the one for sale I looked at. I believe there was also a 242, it didn't have the vynal roof.

Maybe the owner could see into the future and had it taken off. There was a 242 but don't think they came here.
I'm not sure about the 242, you could be right as I've only ever seen them on the net. TBH I'd have rather had the later 240 Turbo.
