Hi guys, I'm Emma.
I'm in the UK on the Isle of Wight and I finally own a '89 340 GL 1.7, after 2 years of waiting/searching! Been loving the 300 series for quite a while now and lurking here occassionally.

Oh, and at the minute, I'm Standard and proud!

Was online so thought it was a bit sad no one had replied / welcomed you yet so: Welcome!
I'm not on here that much but can tell you that you are on THE quintessential Volvo 300 site - some of the people on here are amazing! I won't be able to help you - I'm just a car idiot - but the geniuses will be able to help you. It's also great for parts & various leads on where to get stuff. I'm having to get rid of my 1987 340 ironically but I will still use the site cos it's great for stuff like carburettors as well.
Well done for using one of those smiley faces - I still don't know how to use those!
Good luck with your '89 340 - beautiful car - it's the interior that does it for me - sooo comfortable. Wish mine wasn't falling apart!
Adieu, Volvopandy.

Welcome and congrats with the car.
Though more common in the UK a good 1.7 is becoming a "rare" beast in the rest of the world.
Any pics?

Hi Emma,

welcome to the forum! Yes, pictures would be great

Cheers

Tom

Very sorry for the late reply and welcome to the forum - I was keeping my head down after making some odd comments in another thread. Keeping it all bog-standard is definitely the thing to do.

Welcome! Have seen your car on the Facebook group. Hope you're breathing fresh air now

Hi Emma.
A big warm welcome from the best part of the UK BELFAST
Cheers Mark.

Welcome aboard
