240 lost, but saved a life 200

Hey all,
My dad is a pretty frequent poster on here for our 1989 and 1991 240's. He picked up his 240 nearly four years ago and has put tons of time, effort and money into making it into his dream machine. Today, he was driving on a busy road locally, turned left and was T-Boned. He managed to walk away, but we seriously doubt the outcome would have been as fortunate had he not been in a 240.

He is already hunting around for another 240 which meets his high standards... if anyone has leads on a good 240, send them our way.

It's funny, because he was completely against me getting a 240, but he loved the safety features. The car is completely totaled, but it's a shocking realization at what a good car the 240 is, and how it maintains its structural integrity even at a high mph crash.
