1983 Volvo 240
Green HornetJust back from picking up a 57 reg 2.0 SE sport V50 with 36k miles and full service history.
I was a bit over priced but got a good trade in price
For a 2.0 it drove like very well and is very nippy
Sorry about the pictures as the sunny had set.
Just need to get some mats and possible change the grill for a later model one.
Whilst on the way back stopped off for a pub lunch and this was parked in the carpark. wtf....
