Hi folks....someof you may know me from the VOC.i just got myself a lovely red 340 DL to add to my collection..shes got 35000 warrented miles 2 elderly ladies as previous owners,full volvo service history..after driving my S60 and now the 340 feels so comfortable and smooth despite no power steering or any other electrical gadgets..i am very impresssed with the simplicity on this car..heres some pics for you guys..she may not be as fast as some of yours but shes bloody brilliant for me


















Tiffany flew through her MOT on Tuesday with flying colours even though she had been parked up for over a year..her exhaust is abit rusty but thats not even a issue..the MOT tester suggested i preserve her rust free under carriage so i spent the rest of Tuesday cleaning and under sealing her..

Hey Mo! I saw you were going to get this the other day, she looks awesome! 300's that are still red are rare as mate, you've done very well. You coming up to Gaydon at the weekend?

Hi Chris ..i really wanted to come to Gaydon but my company has refused to give me the day off ..lol i can understand i only just returned to work after 6 weeks of leave..if you got time your welcome to join me for a brew ..i am next to Bham airport/NEC until 6pm..

regards
Mo

Where would we be without elderly ladies? Lovely-looking car, please tell me you're keeping the radio?

Hi Tom ..so far everything in car works and will stay in car as long as it works..i think the simple things with the car are very appealing to me as my S60 got so many gagdets that can go wrong canbe a headache lol..shame Tiffany aint got power steering my ruddy biceps are over developing lol..

That's a lovely looking car, I've never been a great fan of red, but this one and meintag's have made me change my mind.

truly time warp material , well done for finding such a beauty

Very nice car Mo... but I've seen the pictures on the VOC and the kids need some credit for their valeting skills

Yup, beautiful car Mo, welcome to V3m. I thought your kids would have had something to do with the shineyness

Wow, what a beut! The paint looks great, as does the interior and the underside! Looks better than mine!

Have you got a garage to keep her in so the paint doesn't fade unlike most red 300's?

Look after her

SOOOOOOOOOOOOPERB!!

Looks great, was this on fleabay not too long ago?

- if not there must be a very similar car in the same condition somewhere. 2 in this condition in red would be like rocking horse doo doo.

Keep it standard and enjoy,
