I was just about to post these, look great value at £250 each! Ones even tax exempt. The tax exempt one was last taxed in 2007 so could be an easy project.

The blue one reminds me of my very first Volvo a 144dl auto K reg. It went on forever until I stripped the fibre gears.
The Gl was a much better spec. I assume the one in the picture would have the B20e.
A definite bargain at £250

The GL is a rare car and definatly worth saving

looking at http://howmanyleft.co.uk/vehicle/volvo_144_gl

there are a total of only 8 surviving and this one being a 1974 could well be the latest surviving one.

I hope some one picks it up and restores it
