Looks great
I'm still loving my 1989 GLT estate bought for £350 with 159,000 miles, 2.5 years later now done 184700. Best volvo I have ever had. It's my main and only car. I plan to keep mine for as long as possible Once back in the UK, classic insurance and possibly having it converted to run on LPG. James |

i gave £700 but it is really clean the only rust on it is on the bulk head where that piece of matting sits but that is still only very minor and only just along the lip 3 or 4 inches worth..
i love the charcoal grey one of the main reasons for purchase but my first job although some may disagree is a Manuel conversion

Nice machine.
Arguably the best colour for a GLT; but it really does warrant a manual box.
You might need to change the back axle as the auto's final drive ratio might be on the low side.
