360GLT for sale – £325 on the road
 

I need an incentive to get some other cars on the road – so would anybody like my rat-look Volvo 360GLT?

It's, if anything, too much fun to drive and too easy to own.

MoT until December 11th; tax until the end of November,

It's far scruffier than it looks in the photos – dented doors; hole in the driver's door filled with slap; rusty carbuncle at the front of the bonnet; sun-roof sealed with gaffer tape.

Other bad things: exhaust blowing slightly; makeshift but effective fuel supply system featuring a Rover 214 filter (which'll need changing soon); radiator slightly silted (runs constantly a little over half way up the temperature gauge, but creeps up a little further on hot days when cruising at 100mph or above); rear shock absorbers could be firmer; slight judder when pulling away sometimes (suspect engine mounts).

None of the above have deteriorated or given cause for concern in 5000 miles of enthusiastic driving.

Everything else is fundamentally decent – engine, transaxle, brakes, tyres, etc. It's great fun to throw around and cruises splendidly on the motorway.

85,000ish miles.

Most importantly, it has a Volvo Backflash across the rear screen. 'Sophisticated styling, fitted in minutes!'

It's near Chippenham, Wiltshire.

£325

I thought I recognised the name...and I certainly recognise the face!

That's a good price, even if it's a little rough around the edges. Should sell easily...but may be better off on eBay, as most people here already have several!

cheers

Could you contact me on 07772499637 I'm interested in buying this car

Oh...the judder will be the clutch, assuming it gets worse if you get it hot. Very common issue. Not actually a problem, just a bit annoying. A new one will make it go away, but I wouldn't bother...just put up with it!

cheers

Does anyone know if this is still for sale?

I sent a pm and an email and have had no reply to either one.

Hi Sam

Where did you get that Volvo 'backflash', as you call it, please?

It could be a NOS Volvo one.

For £325 that's a cheap fun car

I LOVE this car! I am trying to persuade my girlfriend that she needs it as a first car because I don't have room for it on my drive (darn super long 940 estate)

Just out of interest, is it still available?

Regards,

Michael.

Hi Sam.
Have you still got the 343 we all read about?
Cheers Mark.

Hello all,

This 360GLT is still in need of rehoming.

The MoT's recently expired – but there are no obvious failure points. While I try to muster the enthusiasm to MoT and eBay it, does anyone fancy it as is for £200?

Collection from near Chippenham, Wiltshire.
