What great pix of a very interesting find :shock: well done guys repatriating this one!
I think blue plates indicate a diplomat car (they do in Denmark,Sweden and Norway at least) so perhaps this is a former British embassy car??
Also very interesting to see TC window edges fitted to the rear doors - not being the same as a saloon rear door these could well be home made adaptions from the saloon parts or do they look ´factory´??? Perhaps BL offered TC estates on the continent???
I am also curious to know the original paint & trim colours -was it dark blue with beige seats??

Actually it looks like tundra green and limeflower trim !! and the chrome trim looks factory fitted !! But we'll know a bit more when we empty all the bits out !! Should be fun !!
