340GL Vario for sale

skattrd · May 11th, 2016, 12:53

1985 Volvo 340GL Variomatic (auto)
1.4l
33700 miles, yes 33k (this will go up as I use it occasionally)
MOT November 2016
Condition: exterior is a bit scruffy, rust on doors, rear wings and small spots all over, a few dents and scrapes here and there, so not a looker. Interior, good, as you would expect from a low mileage car.
Issues: Heater matrix bypassed (no heat) tailgate struts useless and that's about it, apart from cosmetics mentioned above.

I bought this for my sister as her first car, but have since acquired a Clio instead, which she prefers, so this is for sale.
I collected the car from Glasgow about 6 weeks ago and drove it 300 miles home without issue. I have since done a few hundred miles more in it and it's great, I'd love to keep it but I have too many cars.

Price £450
Location Lincolnshire, about 10 miles south of Lincoln.

If you want any pics of anything specific or more details let me know.

Hmm...

I really shouldn't as I REALLY don't have space, but would go well with my Capri.

That's B125 WAT.

Or go the whole hog with a dirty redblock turbo...

I can't though.
Have you seen the list in my sig?
There's at least one that's not on there!

I sae on your 460 project thread you were thinking of selling a couple... That's more than enough incentive to get a 300 haha.

A red block would require a 360 driveline which would be harder to come by... A 1.4 turbo vario would be a laugh!
