Default More details of my Volvo 340

I was unable to send you a PM, so instead here are further details of my Volvo 340:
Volvo 340 hatchback, first registered in April 1989 (F), charcoal grey with spoiler, 1397 cc, manual transmission. One careful lady owner/driver, full service history, good condition, current mileage is 198,210. MOT due 12.3.11, taxed until 31.3.11. I am not aware of any major faults. Its minor faults are: one rear seatbelt does not work properly, driver’s seat does not tip forwards, boot does not stay open by itself, radio and cassette player no longer work. Some rust on bottom of driver’s door, lower edges of windscreen and rear wheel arches.

I tried twice to upload 5 photos of my Volvo but was unable to and have emailed the administrator. If you wish me to email you the photos, please let me have your email address.

Hi,

If you are interested in my Volvo 340 I would be happy to sell it for £100. It has started cutting out and being "jumpy" intermittently and I no longer feel that I can rely on it.

Please could you let me know if you are interested.

Thanks and regards
Ulrike

The AA have now looked at it and cleaned out the carburettor. The car is running fine and smoothly again. Of course, I can give no guarantee about future reliability.
