Right.. bit of an odd one but after working out some finances a good condition 360 is wanted, so I can put some money tied up in my current car towards the on going house deposit fund! 300's still win for cheap insurance! Just seeing what's out there really.....
So anyone know of a nice (as rust free as possible) 360 GLE/GLT for sale? Preferably hatchback and GLT as I couldn't go back to owning a saloon having sold my bodykit

Trouble is with 340 16v's is that I just cant get a decent insurance quote, I can insure an 850 T5 for less

Also the drivetrain worry!

This one looks well good imo:

spoiler an everything!, not sure if i'd want a sunroof...due to rust....., low, low, mileage!!!!!, and good colour for a 360!!!
£600 is a bit steep, but maybe he'd take an offer!.
google z its 75 miles away from ye steve!, ...................sure thats just a bus journey and VND could lend ye his bus pass!


Don't own a Volvo atm, might be looking another?

Thanks for that, I actually enquired about that car but it's had past welding and more rust than I think the advert and commanding price let on. Tis a nice looking car though, although I'm not so sure on the colour myself??
I've arranged to see a white E plate GLT with 66k on Saturday so we'll see how that goes

I was quoted near £900 at Flux/HIC, which being 24 and having 5yrs no claims is a bit of a p*ss take!
