Best appreciated when open.
I probably should have specified ladies legs in there too. [+=] "embarrarrased emoticon"[].com

I'm still trying to work out what it is, Surely the 'lambda sond' badge on the front would make it a injection so b19e/b200e yet 340 badge on the back. The backbox looks like a late B200 one... Whatever it is, nice to see it - good spot!

Didn't euro 340s get a 2 litre option?
Or am I just making that up?

I'm sure there would be 340's with 2Ls in out the factory. I presumed it was just after they revised badging from 343/345 into 340/60 and things that became 360's ended up as 340's... But thats a mk3.

I seem to think you may be right mr VND

I was just about to post about that. I'm pretty certain the only lamba'd 300's were 360's (GLTs only?) Where are our Euro guys ;)

Matt hurry up and LH your 360. I *really* want to do that project again and need someone to do it so I don't have to!

I know of a 340 wearing one it doesn't need...
