bought one when i was bout 15 for £30. great fun in the fields.
not as good condition as that one though...
a friend was given a 340 as a runabout, i drove it upto Wales to deliver it but by the time it got there had a few issues (exhaust blowing etc) so i got to drive it back & scrapped it. Must admit it was actually quite nice to drive & did think about keeping it to do as another BT style project but couldn't justify it
Ours looked like this one:
Lovely!

Whys the numbering all messed up on these ones anyway?
Mine was a 360 GLT but certain it only had 4 cylinders?
Wheras my parents had a 260 GLE and that was a 2.8l 6 cylinder beast
And obviously, the 850 is 5 cylinder.
Shame the 480 wasnt a V8...

340 = 1.4 and 1.7 Renault sourced enginesWeren't the 360's so numbered as to differentiate them from the smaller Renault engined 1.4 and 1.7's ?
360 = 2.0 Volvo engines; B19/B200K (Carb) and B200E (injection)
I had 3 360 GLTs, great cars although they rot badly and some of the build quality isnt very volvo like.
