1988 Volvo 340 GLE For Sale

Post by 51monjj » 17 Jul 2014 12:46 pm

1988 [F-Reg] Volvo 340 GLE Saloon – 1 Owner From New – Circa 80,000miles

I am selling this car on behalf of my farther who no-longer has any use for the vehicle. He has owned it from new back in 1988 and has maintained it with meticulous detail. The car has been garaged without fail, when not in use and really is in excellent condition and entirely original.

Service and Maintenance:-

The car was originally purchased from T.L. Darby Ltd of Burton-Upon-Trent and was first registered on 1st November 1988 and has religiously been maintained and serviced by this dealer.

Included within the sale is the key, the service book, a host of receipts and old tax discs along with almost all the MOT certificate since the car was purchased. INC. the current MOT until October 2014

If you are looking for a genuine car with a record of exceptional care and maintenance then this car is it.

The specification and extras:-

This car was top of the range when it was purchased and has so many optional extras that perhaps we consider standard today. These include:-

Electric front windows

Sunroof

Central Locking

Radio Tuner

Power Steering

Heated Seats

Tailored Rubber Mats

The Bad Bits:-

Whilst I am sure that any viewer of this car would be happy with the description above, I think it sensible to note that there are a few scratches to the car and minor corrosion around the arch. The main issue is a leaking break pipe to the rear right, which would mean anyone collecting the car needs to make arrangements to address this issue. Alternatively, we can arrange a repair prior to collection, although the buyer would need to pay for these.

Please feel free to call to arrange a viewing or ask questions.

Simon - 07540 166 730

£650 o.n.o BURTON-UPON-TRENT

Hope this complies with the selling rules. If not, please let me know.

Hi Simon,

A friend of mine has been looking for a saloon for a while, what litre is it and do you have any links for photos so I can show him?

Cheers, Tom

2.0 340?

Are you sure it's not a 360?

Just a few questions from my mate as we are fairly local and could probably come and view soon.

Is there any tax currently on the car?
Are there rear disc brakes or drums?
What colour is the car?
Are the wheels original?

Could you please upload some photos to photobucket or imageshack or something and post the address for the albums location so that we can see it?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

The tax runs out in October
It's drums on the back
The car is grey
It's the original wheels and covers.

Sorry for the short reply. Doing it on my phone.

Can you text me with your number of email address and I will send you the photos

Judging by the engine capacity on eBay it looks like this is a 360 GLE rather than a 340...

Looks nice but the leaky brake pipe might put people off, fix it and I'm sure you'll get the asking price :)
