Atleast I can see what mine will look like once it's spoilered... just a little less crappy than that

Bet it's got a fair bit of rust.
EDIT: That's a rare car over here being an 82

That's got to be one of the earliest 360s in the UK. Definitely interesting ...

in the early days the 300s were 343 and 345 depending on the number of doors.
That ended when the the 360 began. then it was 340 and 360 regardless of doors.
Im guessing the seller is trying to be TOO clever.
its a 360 with 5 doors.

Aye mate, its aboot time anall.
Chalk down a correct posting, back up to 43%.
volvo oldstyle is:
first number is range (ie 3)
second number is cylinders (ie 4)
and last is number of doors (ie 3 or 5)
so the 200 series couple is a 262 coz its a 2 series with a 6 cylinder lump with 2 doors plus a boot.
More correctness!

Is it wrong to persuade you to valver your 1.7 AND buy a GLS
Dude, get involved. I'll come up with you to look over it if you want another set of eyes.

Don't get me wrong, it's lovely but I'm looking for a little more than 35mpg and a 40 litre tank. For that money I may as well take the valver

I'm not saying no, persuade me that a GLS would be a good choice. Considering what I'm aiming for (volvo 2, 7 or 9 series or Mercedes diesel) how would a GLS compare?

GLS is cooler.
And you wont have to sell it when you get back.
It has a spoiler.
Theres my argument.
