well this is my 3rd 300 and my 5th volvo :/
the plan was to brake this up, use for spares and get future engine conversion bits but its just to tidy!
alot better condition than my mk2, im not going to boast about how its "MINT"(that some people on here do) cause i bet its got typical 300 rust hiding in there some where. inner wings seem very strong no crust at all from arch side but bet there is some on the over side. had it on my ramp, sills are all good, chassis looks good and valance is solid.
its got slight dent on the rear panel and bit of rust on one of the rear doors but its still easily repairable.
its a h reg got electric windows, mirrors, central locking and heated seats.
tax and tested. all for a nice sum anyway some rubbish pictures off the iphone.

Well you can't really go wrong for £100 can you :D

Are those self tapers screwed into the bodywork, or just the bumper brackets?

Looks in good nick apart from the minor dent/light cracked. I bet your not short of lights :lol: I'm quite getting used to seeing 5 door cars now, they kind of grow on you a bit especially with bigger alloys and lowered.
Thats very much like the spec. of my 1.7 but more doors. Not bad for £100!

You've catching me up fast. I have the 2 that are road going (but 1 needs MOT) and one project. The 4th doesn't really count as it's half way stripped down and unlikely to see the road again.

Beware, it's habit forming :lol:

this is now for sale, iv put an mot on it (last month) and done a bit work on it for mot also put some rear seats in it as it had none and a new exhaust.
i want 400ono can deliver at a cost if this is not gone by this time next month i will break it! i really dont want to but i need the space for something new and its also the same colour as my other 340 so i cant get a rust free valance, wings and bonnet for mine and on the plus side its a 1.7 so ill drop this engine in mine till i get a valver and ill have a head start.

Yes this car is extremely tidy, not a spot of rust on it, do you mind me asking what your doing with your other one as if your braking it I wouldn't mind some parts as its the right colour. Could work out a deal with a spoiler and Shit.
