HISTORY: First registered on 1st August 1989, for the new “G” registration year, for Mr Roberts of Oswestry, who owned the car until January 2018, almost 30 years, and then purchased by Mr Hull who owned it until recently when it was left to his son in his will earlier this year. So 2 main owners in its life with a very comprehensive history file comprising of just about every invoice and old MOT certificate, see the images, along with the original Dealer PDI sheet. The car has always been very well maintained and there are invoices in the file for new steering rack, heater matrix, front indicators, fuel pump, tailgate seal, timing belt covers and rear road springs.
We have carried out a thorough pre-delivery service and inspection along with an MOT expiring at the of November 2026. The MOT has no advisory items other than the underside being protected by waxoil underseal. There is an image of our PDI list and we have replaced the timing belt and tensioner, water pump and front crankshaft oil seal which had a small oil leak. We have also fitted new front brake pads and a new Exide battery.
This car drives very well indeed and everything works as it should. Very rare to find such a well looked after and maintained car, clearly been loved.

EXTERIOR CONDITION:
Generally, very good with only minor blemishes commensurate with age and mileage. There is a small flaw on the rear of the driver’s side front wing which has been touched in. There is one invoice for some welding done which was a small amount of labour so must have been insignificant.

Clean and undamaged, other than a minor repair to the driver’s seat. Previous owners were non-smokers.

I spent many years managing Volvo dealerships and retailing Volvo cars during the 1980s and 90s when this model was still being sold new! I have also rallied a Volvo 360GLT and 244GL, completing the Lombard RAC Rally twice. I also currently rally a Classic Volvo 240GL in Historic Events.
I also have over 40 years of experience in the motor trade and I only stock genuine cars with service history.
I can be contacted through email, or by text or telephone to 07792883103.
If you need any more information or have a question, I look forward to hearing from you.
