Volvo 360 GLT T+T RC featured
Posted: 13 Nov 2011 09:11 pm
Right then, time has come to think about the future of this car. I am beginning to think I cant afford to give this car the care it deserves. I am very concerned about slowly destroying a good example purely becuase funds are tight.
SO, its kind of for sale, this depends totally on what offer is made. It will only be sold if someone pays enough to show that they will take care of it. Low offers will only make me think it won't be cared for.
Thats the reasons for the sale, now the good and bad bits, ill start with bad, get it over with.
Bad
Rust- A small hole in the nearside arch, about 1-2 cms, no scabbing around it however. There is also a big scab on one sill, passed mot fine last year and it doesnt seem to have got bigger. Other sill has a patch but all very well done with a full respray on that sill.
A creese and the nearside C-pillar, diffcult to see from a distance and IMO only adds abit of character to the car. Paint it fine
A few stone chips on the bonnet and front of rear arch (on the weird little flare just after the door)
Still has its spring problem BUT THIS WILL BE SORTED IF SOLD, also exhaust bangs but this was fitted as standard to all late 360s as im sure you know. A slight blow as well but again WILL BE SORTED IF SOLD.
Good
The following have been done during and since summer
Timing belt (@120,000 done hardly any miles since) and all other belts
Fuel pump
Water pump
Service, OIl, filter, air filter.
Dizzy cap and arm
Fuel filter
New wheels and tyres
I removed the rear wiper, the back of the car looks much cleaner.
Has tax and MOT till march 2012
As most regulars one here know, this car looks great, the paint point is great and always gets comments.
Featured in RC this month!!!
Will come with GLT wheels, tyres in poor condition.
Comes with a spare airflow metre (fitted with an apparently modified one)
A few other items you'd be welcome too, they could also be sold sperate.
I have no idea what ill replace it with, maybe a willaims, but fire away with offers, I just want it to stay a great example.

I hadn't even thought about the rule before I posted, so its my fault. I just really don't know what I am going to do with it, so putting it out there that I'm open to offers may make a descion for me.
ha good luck with the sale mate looks nice
