VOLVO 340 1.7 GL 12000 MILES

Post by mlangley » 20 Jul 2008 03:35 pm

VOLVO 340 1.7 GL F REG, 5 DOOR, MANUAL IN WHITE. THIS CAR IS ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING CONDITION THROUGHOUT AND INCREDIBLY ONLY HAS 12000 MILES FROM NEW. IT RUNS PERFECT. PASSED MOT WITH FLYING COLOURS. THERE IS A MARK ON THE CAR. IT HAS ORIGINAL STEREO AND EVERYTHING ELSE IS TOTALLY ORIGINAL. IM AM SELLING THE CAR BECAUSE I INHERITED IT AND I DON'T USE IT AT ALL SO WOULD BE A SHAME TO LET THIS FINE CAR GO TO WASTE. I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHERE TO PRICE THE CAR AS IM SURE ITS ONE OF THE BEST EXAMPLES OUT THERE AND IT HAS TO HAVE THE LOWEST MILES. SO IM OPEN TO SENSIBLE OFFERS. I WILL ADD SOME PICS SOON BUT TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THE CAR IS IMPECCABLE. EMAIL ME OR PHONE. the car is located in leeds.

Nice car. I wonder why it has those wheels though?

No, but I think I can second guess what happened...
Volvo was using 2 styles of steel wheel - a type with small vertical slats in and the type on your white car, the type on yours were (on mk3's like yours) always painted black and used as spares or were behind plastic wheel trims.
Thinking about it logically, yours as an 88/89 GL would have come with those wheels and plastic wheel trims - I'm thinking that at some point (maybe even at delivery) the original owner of your car professed a dislike of plastic wheeltrims and had the steels it painted silver and fitted with the plastic 'mk3' centre caps normally fitted to the other steel.....

thanks for that. im not very good on the knowledge of volvos. but what i can say in my brief ownership of the 340 is how solid they are and how smooth it runs. if my wife wasnt so picky i would consider a newer volvo for her. but never mind
