Returning to the 340

Post by baron_matt » 01 Dec 2022 07:04 pm

Hi

I'm just returning to 340 ownership after a decade in the wilderness and just wanted to say hi.

In case there are any of the old faces that remember me I used to own a 1986 blue 340 vario D402UGM. I'm not sure if lulu is still running I certainly hope so as she was a lovely motor.

The new 340 that is just about to land is an 88 DL 5 door manual (booooo no more vario whurrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiooooooooooo), which has had a hard life and needs a spot of TLC and some parts/money throwing at it, so I look forward to catching up with you all online.
