Yup 19.000 mile allegedly! Looks very tasty.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1978-VOLVO-244...item2558fb943a

Hope someone snaps it up, from reading the text if it doesn't sell I imagine the lad will get his way and destroy it on the track (whats wrong with these people?)

I was just about to post the link to that too.

If you can fathom what the advert says, it seems an alright car.

Points I noticed:

-Pitted bumpers
-On the pic of the scraped wheel arch, filler is already present (made visible by being chipped out...) so be prepared to find rust under filler there...
-dent in back passenger wing
-condensation inside
-horrible horrible radio installation

seems a bit rough around the edges that one..lol....now looking at selling my estate as at the mo got 3 cars and the volvo has to go

as the other half wont drive it...way to big for her...and not a spot of filler/condensation or a ill fitting radio in sight

I think it looks a pretty good basis for a project!

Funny you should mention, that caught my attention too ... I'm not an Oxford graduate but I have to say the use of English is, um, interesting. If I were having a paranoid day I might even say it's worded a bit like some of those unsolicited e-mails I get on a regular basis ...
