The 340 has 1.4 and 1.7 Renault derived engines. The 360 has a 2.0 Volvo engine. :)

Thats good to hear. I thought that tuning bits wouldn't be that huge.

So you didn't have the 340DLS and 340GLS with B19A engine in the UK?
Or the D16?

We never really got the Diesel engine in the UK, only in certain parts of Ireland I believe, so there are a few right hand drive models lerking about!

I'm not sure about very early 340's and if they had bigger engines here, but Mk 1 300's are very rare here, Mk 2's are rarish as well, with Mk3's being the most common.

Thats exactly the same over here(the NL).

At the moment there are about 2 MK1 (343's) for sale on populair sites. 345 or any DLS GLS are really rare. Haven't seen any of it for sale yet. MK2 is the same thing. About 2 times as much as a MK1.. You;ll see a MK3 on every corner. 340's (most of them 1.4) anyway. 360's are also quite rare...

Only the 360 came with the B19 up to 1984-1985, when it swapped to the B200 - no 2 litre 340's over here!
