Are you sure you want to recreate it ? I think you may just cancel since 
it already exists. Anyway that's your script :)

try that one


# first create dirs for test
wattazoum at wattazoum-laptop:~$ file=MyTest
wattazoum at wattazoum-laptop:~$ mkdir 230-$file
wattazoum at wattazoum-laptop:~$ mkdir 240-pre$file
wattazoum at wattazoum-laptop:~$ mkdir 231-
wattazoum at wattazoum-laptop:~$ mkdir 231-{$file}sup
# here is the test
wattazoum at wattazoum-laptop:~$ ls | grep [0-9][0-9][0-9]-$file$

You can put it in a var and do whatever you want.
