Know of this one Paul? Superficially at least looks like a good 'un.

Sorry couldn't reply earlier but have only just got computer back from menders (again!). Yes - did notice that, and as you say looks OK apart from darkening of the door lower corners as if the dreaded rust isn't far away. Don't know the car history though, and a bit far to go to view (as if I need another!).
It was of note that several 140s and 164s attended the Southern Volvo rally at Romsey last weekend - even one I hadn't seen for several years and looking like my car's twin brother! More should make the effort, I say! I should have tried to get the 3 light blue 164s there in a photo-lineup again - remember Popham all those years ago?

Paul

Slap wrist....alas a lot was on a few weeks ago Paul, including the purchase of a low mileage W124 230E....
Next time around....missed the Volvo enthusiasts at Kidderminster too. Long ago....only 5 years!
