Default 1990 G Reg. 340, 1.4 manual looking for a new home

Hi - does anyone have any interest in this? Our 1990 340, 1.4, manual, white. 110,000 miles.

Has MOT till September 2017

Have owned this since 1994 so it has had 2 owners since new.

White, with grey interior.

Have been given a newer car so space restrictions means it’s time to dispose of this 340 which has been a great car over the years.

Main issue is corrosion on some body panels and elsewhere. Interior is in very good condition, and quite a few parts are fairly new, eg had a new radiator not so long ago (spent about £500 on it in 2015).

Dealer serviced from new till about year 2000 when I started to take it to a local independent Volvo specialist who has maintained it ever since, with at least a full annual service and any other recommended repairs carried out. All service documentation is available plus a notebook I complete listing any work carried out, including DIY work.

Garaged since 2000 too.

The car is not used for commuting and annual mileage is low, about 2,500 miles per year for most of the last few years. Car tends to be used for longer trips, not lots of short journeys.

For anyone interested – option could be to take it and use it as is, it’s reliable, got an MOT and I’ve no reason to believe it won’t keep going, or
tackle the corrosion issues and it would be an excellent 340 as it has a fine interior etc or use it for parts, as it’s got a lot of parts that have been used in a relatively low mileage car, and some replacement parts fitted relatively recently.

Would like to pass it on to a 340 enthusiast either for use or to help keep another one going.

I can probably post some pics if I can work out how to do that on the forum!
