360 2l mk3 GLE 49k fvsh *SOLD ish*
Many many Details to follow.
Most of you know my car. Stay tuned. Just waiting for bt to hook me back up to the Internet.
Volvo 360 For sale; Rare maroon coloured 5 door 360GLE carb version. The nice one that works, not the shitty one that doesn't.
49k I think, but it's in dailly use so rising slowly.
Car has a full Volvo dealer service history from new. Service record file is about a yard thick, abs there has litterally been over £3000 spent on it from new.
Brand New clutch, still under warrranty from Volvo dealer.
Brand new timing belt 1k ago.
Last service included new plugs, new leads, new oil, new oil filter, new air filter, new in line fuel filter, new dizzy cap and new rotor arm, new coolant and rad flush.
No rust.
Repeat - no rust.
Anywhere.
Full leather interior, in astounding condition as pics will show.
Car is equipped with:
pas
electric windows
headlight wiper and jets
rear wiper
slide and tilt sunroof. Working perfectly, no leaks.
Seats are heated but elements gone.
Rear seatbelts
period stereo radio cassette player.
Extras and improvements:
glt front lip splitter (fitted)
glt rear boot spoiler (supplied, possibly fitted)
snow cap (fitted)
side window wind deflectors (fitted)
Custom Drilled 8Ball (pool ball) Shifter
full set of correct fitment floor trays (fitted)
super rare headlight protectors (fitted)
set of 5 fifteen inch Volvo pictor alloys (fitted, rear 195/50/15 tyres are BRAND new for mot)
rare 6 dial dash, with Rev counter, speedo, econometer and external temp gauge. All with senders.
Car is lowered 2 inches with proffesional uprated springs on the front, and correct fitting blocks on the back.
I fitted new gas shocks on the front and rear 2k ago. Suspension is all pretty much NEW.
Car runs perfect and has no mechanical issues at all.
Bad bits: and there are some.
Front bumper cracked (replacement provided)
rear bumper has a tiny dent. You probably wouldn't even notice it. But I am being very thorough.
Drivers door seal is split. (Replacement provided.)
car has a scratch on the lip of the front wing about the size of a 2£ coin that has been touched up in a non matching shade of red. Looks poor.
SMALL chip at base of screen, drivers side. Passed 2 mots, no leaks, so never repaired it.
Central locking contacts need cleaning. Locks all work fine, central locking only engages on 2nd or 3rd turn. Common I hear.
Car has full mot today with no advisories.
Taxed only untill the end of the month but can tax at cost.
Looking for £700.
Might sound steep, but it's not.
This car is solid.
If you want to pay less, watch for it on the bay. It'll be heading there soon.
But tbh, the last few good 360s on there have finished around 700. And this ones better.

Nooo, have I missed something? Howcome it's up for sale dude?
Lovely car, doesn't sound at all steep to me considering it's about the nicest daily driver 300's around. Perfect with the wallowy suspension sorted.

So I'm £600 short.
And the old man will give me his giant pug as a stopgap till I can source, and afford a top valver.

There must be some way of avoiding this. Selling the rare bits off it seperately maybe?

maaaaaaaaaaan, you shure do keep running into bad luck Ben
isn't working overtime for a few weeks an option? a few nightshifts maybe for the extra credits?
600quid is less than 700 euro's for a mint low mileage GLE full history included; with leather interior and a variety of nice options. dawm a car like that would raise at least double that on this side of the puddle

Still got both your kidneys? Can you not sell one of those instead, not like you NEED two of the blighters is it?
Seriously though as been said you really deserve some good luck mate, it'll be a shame to see it go
