240 GLT saloon for sale

[geoffo]

Hello - here is a list of some of what's been done to it. I bought it sight unseen off the forum from a farm in wales Feb 2013 as a non runner, had it shipped up north and have been working on it ever since. Mileage is nearly 200,000. Paint code is 214-3 and has black leather interior - the best combination in my opinion. I enjoy the doing up part and I have another project car and as this one is just about done Maybe it's time to move it on. TBH I'm not that interested in giving it away so I'm looking for offers around £2000 depending on what spares come with it. Bring cash and there will be some movement but leave your mike brewer techniques at home! This car is turn key (starts first time every time and runs real sweet and happy to do test drives). Body shows lots of wear and tear (it must have had an eventful life) and interior wearing away nicely - especially drivers seat. Mot august.

31.7 million cars on Britain's roads but only another 39 licensed 1989 240 GLT autos - so your chances of meeting another one are--- slim!

Stunning and worth every penny of £2k

Not offered for sale anywhere else and not even any time wasters to complain about (genuine thanks you guys) therefore price increase. Did a classic car show last week probs 200 cars there and just one 240 (mine). Lots of interest which was fun.... 30 mile round trip to work and back today (classic car Friday!) in the rain never missed a beat and some idiotic micro car drowning in the 2.3 litre fumes when I floored it on the straights....now £2500.....find another if you can....

Hi

I'm looking for a late model 240 GLT saloon, but really needs to be red and a manual - PM me if you hear of one please?

Thanks!

hi I do have a 1982 flat nose bonneted cheese grater grilled b21a four door four speed with o/d - but it's a dl not a GLT and it's a sort of faded maroon. I last saw a red GLT about 4 years ago at Scotch Corner - not seen since and I think you'd be lucky to find one. Being the only low milage with history '82 240 left in the uk (I think) you would need at least a trans am plus cash haha...

Now back at 2k....it's almost like I don't really want to sell it......
