Thanks to both of you, that's really nice to hear

Completely unrelated to the register, but I now want a Mk1

Hi all.
Does anyone know what an up and running mk1 is actually worth?
Cheers Mark.

Whatever someone is willing to pay! Very good question...but I would say at least £1k for something nice with T&T.

cheers

It depends on which country you're in as well. Mainland UK seems to have the lowest prices for used cars in general, probably because not so many cars are exported due to RHD ...

here's my 345 GLS, B19A, M47R, 120.000 km (75.000 miles), light green metallic.
First registration 04-1981





currently the car is stored, probably until next summer. I'd like to get it completely overhauled by then.
The condition of the car is really immaculate, with only two rust spots: both rear wheel arches at the bump stops. It has been stored in a garage all its life, so that's why there's no rust anywhere else on the car.

It is originally from Belgium though, moved to Holland in 2004. On the road again since 2010.

I'm thinking about replacing the B19A engine with a B23A; every summer I spend my holidays in the South of France and in the hills/mountains I could use some extra torque

Lovely to see a MY81 with early nose and wrap-around bumpers. GT alloys are a bonus too

don't forget the headlight wipers (working), mud flaps (mounted in 2012), louvres, striping on the bumpers, RX-3VQ Volvo Microprocessor digital radio, and of course the Original Volvo/Tobo B19 tow-bar

I forgot to mention the striping on the bonnet

I haven't forgotten that

My RX-2Q is working well on FM 106.8 today:

Must get round to doing something about the AM on my one.

I'll have a look for a spare FF/RW knob. I seem to remember yours is missing.

that would be great!
