Red paintwork, looks rather dull

This is not my car! Just posting up the linky

If anyone is looking at that for the "power steering" take a close look, it wasn't available from the factory on a 340 and I've only seen a couple of after market conversions.

Looks a stunning car though.

That looks like it'd scrub up very well indeed!
I once said I hated 300series Volvos but now I'm so much more interested!

Went to see it, bid on it, fumbled and lost it !!!

It was stunning- no rust whatsoever, full dealer history, ran very sweet.

Mileage was not 10,000 (speedo change in 1999ish - true mileage nearer 21,000). Power steering was professional conversion using as far as I could see 360 parts.

Paint looked odd in the bay pix (o/s front wing / o/s front door) By the time I saw the car the seller had polished the door as well and they matched far better.

A depressed Mollusk.

Mac, that was naughty of you! Shame you didn't win it though, and I too hope that someone will give it a good home.
