1988 340 for sale - Vario *SOLD*

[volvosneverdie]

Due to more and continued family illness, im needing very very economical car so am looking for a Cavalier TD with the Isuzu lump.

So the Vario is up for sale.

The Roof rack (Griffo), Snowcap (kds19), Wellers (Filthyjohn), Leather (Anjo), Steering Wheel (Filthyjohn) have all been removed and replaced with standard items.

So comes on standard volvo steels, nice GLE heated seats, Standard or possibly Mountney steering wheel.
Horn function will be returned to steering wheel.

62,000 miles. 6 moths MOT, tax is up at the end of November.

Been scratched deeply down one side (not through to the metal). Covered by stickers atm. Including Supercool 340 backflash on the rear screen.

Small rust on one corner of the vallance, smal filled area on drivers door (see pics) small rust on one front arch, and small rust on bonnet leading edge.
None of which is anything to worry about. The shells solid.

Theres a vacuum leak somewhere which causes lumpy running after about 40 mins though its never ever cut out. Still runs on strong though. Never let me down.
Starter motor has been changed recently.
Carb has been changed and checked, not the issue. Engine has been compression tested and is one of the fittest evar!

Vario system was checked over by Macplaxton for mot and is in tip-top shape. Constant uninterupted acceleration is a Winar!!

Some pics at various stages of my ownership. (bear in mind no snowcap, no leather, standard steel wheels, no roofrack included in sale)

Modded front grille, wind defectors, floor trays, and cd player included.








































Looking for less than I paid (which wasnt much!)

First with £200 gets to drive it home.


please note: NO GOOD 4 DRIFTINGZ

I have found some space... now just the minor problem of being 300 miles away

They are period Weller motorsport steels.
More often found in white, but much cooler in black.

Thought i recognised them! You wouldn't consider just selling those wheels would you? I'd buy the car, but ones enough for now!

Yes I would, and indeed already have.
I mention that at the start of the listing.

They're cool wheels though. Keep your eyes peeled on eBay they come up now and again.

If its still available then, you can drive it away.

Thanks for the interest.
