New to the Volvo scene!

]Hey all. Just moved on from vws onto Volos

Purchased an '87 340 gle limited edition 1.7, I believe 1 of 300?

According to howmanyleft there are 0 registered on the road, mine is now so it'll make 1!

I hope I've made a good choice, carbs a bit dodgy at present though!

Other than that, 53k, fsh, leather heated seats etc. it's all mod cons to me!

Just thought I'd introduce myself and see what the life of a 340 owed entails.

Not for drifting this one!

Cheers!

Welcome in dude. Howmanyleft tells lies. There's lots left.
Still sounds like a nice car mind.

Get some pics up.

What a nice car!

Lots has been written on the Solex carburettor. Use the search function on the RH top corner of this page. A good thing to check is if the float still deserves its name (it often doesn't).
