Re: 1989 1.4 343 88k

Yeah, Milton Keynes currently. But as I'm moving it will be in either Chesham or Norfolk in a week or so...

I currently don't have internet in my new house, so bear with me if it takes a little time to reply...

BUT it is rusty (has had it's sills welded 3 or 4 years ago) and has a little bit of a coolant leak. I replaced the radiator (for a brand new one) a couple of years...

Advice needed on front coil spring

Hey guys, I really need some help with my 1988 340. Yesterday I hit a large pothole in Milton Keynes (there are a lot of them around!) there was a large thud and my tyre popped. I noticed when changing the tyre that the bottom of the front coil spring (the protector?) was bent, so I got it bent back...

Re: New radiator + fan switch issue...

That was the conclusion I'd come to as well... Very irritating! I've tried wd-40, still no movement though. It is like they have fitted the wrong sized thread in the radiator, surely they wouldn't have made that mistake though...?

Re: Official V3M 300 Spotted Thread.

I was just looking through the thread here and spotted my car!
It's the one taken by mickt on the bottom of page 8, parked by the grand union canal in MK! He looks pretty good there :D

Hey

I just got a 340 and it has a couple of random bits missing, I don't suppose you have a speaker cover for the drivers side or the inside square bit with Volvo form the center of the steering wheel?

Thanks

Hello (again)!

Hi guys! I was on here a couple of years ago when I was looking for a 340. My parents very kindly bought me one for my 21st a few weeks ago, so I thought I'd come back and show you my lovely car. I can't work out how to get the images to work, so I've just put the ebay page it was on. I hope it work...

Help!

Hi. I'm afraid it is a very long way, especially if you have only driven in the Newcastle area.
Would it be possible to get it transported at a reasonable cost? Does anyone know people who transport cars economically? Help!

The car is what I'm looking for, but I won't be able to get up there to collect it before you leave.

Is there any possible way that you would have time to bring it down here before you do leave?

Thanks

Thanks for the photos. Just a few more things, has the cam belt been replaced on it, and if so how long ago? Has it been kept in a garage or on the street? Is there a service history? And will it need much work doing to it for its next MOT? When do you need to sell it by? As I'm still on my provisio...
