340 for sale

Post by john wade »

Much loved 340 1.4 for sale £110. Barnstaple, N Devon.

125,000 miles (apx odometer stuck at 105k) taxed and tested until April.
Requires apx £500 worth of work (quote by garage)to get through next MOT (tyres, steering, exhaust) Radio excellent but cassette player U/S
Owned last 5 years and 50k miles. In last two years new water pump & radiator and battery & dizzy cap.
Thats it. Usual 340 charms. Used as a workhorse so not pretty but presentable. Need for motorway miles forces sale (I'm going Skoda).

In response to query.
Its a 5 door. Needs three new tyres. Weld required on front pipe of exhaust. New silencer req'd but possibly weldable IMHO (pipe seperated from box) Excessive play in steering. Just looked; Tax expires end July 09 MOT April 14th 09.

C'mon boys!
It's too good for the scrapper and deserves better!
Unlike the £180 hack on E bay, this doesn't need a new clutch!
Ah, go on, go on, go on, go on.......

Surprised somebody doesnt.
Maybe pics might make the difference man?
Devons quite a way out for me, but surely its worth the sticker price for parts alone?

Not heard from Smokebillowing yet so I reckon it's still available. However, because of tax refund, swapping insurance etc etc it WILL be going to the scrapper next Friday (27th) unless some one does a deal.
Cheers

PS Its actually MOT'd till May 19th not April.

The tyres have life in them. All the points listed above were what the garage advised would be required for the MOT in May.
Its a drive away job if you dont mind a loud exhaust. Forget the tyres, bring some gun gum.
