EXTERIOR
The exterior of this 340 is fantastic. Finished in Polar White, (Code 234), with the standard ‘GL’ specification coachline clearly visible. The appearance of the car is a testament to the care and attention bestowed upon it by the only owner from new. The paintwork has a bright shine and is generally in exceptional condition. There are a few very minor scratches and touch-ups to the paintwork. These minor imperfections do not, however, detract from the overall impressive appearance of the car. All protective mouldings and rubber trim is in excellent order as is the glass, lights and badges. Original Volvo Dealer number plates are still fitted although the front is cracked and Volvo mud-flaps remain attached. All identification stickers are clearly visible. A beautiful car that continued Volvo’s reputation for safety, a real time warp example.
INTERIOR
The interior of this 340 is outstanding. Finished in Grey Plush, the seats and door trim are in excellent order and show no sign of wear, truly in as new condition. The front orthopaedic seats are heated and offer wonderful armchair comfort. The carpets have been preserved by Dealer fit Volvo rubber tray mats in the front and rear, thus remain in excellent order, free from wear. The impact absorbing headlining is tight and free from marks and discolouration. Interior and glovebox courtesy lighting is in working order and all switchgear, gauges and dash warning lights function correctly. The standard Volvo stereo radio requires coding. Supplying dealer tax disc holder and rear window sticker remain attached as do the front screen warning stickers. An impeccable and functional 340 interior promoting a pleasant and safe driving environment.
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The B14 ED engine of 1397cc produces 69bhp and 106Nm of torque and upholds the reputation of bullet proof reliability. With electronic ignition mapping the microprocessor constantly scans it memory bank of 2048 possible timing points and matches timing precisely to the engines operating conditions giving improved efficiency and responsive performance. The continuously variable automatic transmission provides relaxed travel.
WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The original 13” steel wheels have genuine Volvo trim covers with slight lacquer lift and are shod in premium branded 175/70 R13 tyres. A dual-circuit brake system with discs up front bring the car to a straight and steady halt. An additional high level rear brake light accompanies the comprehensive braking system you would expect from Volvo.
HISTORY FILE

This car has been maintained extensively and regardless of cost by Volvo Main Dealers.

A hand written entry of annual mileage covered has been logged by the owner along with all previous MOT’s which combined with the service documents verify the very low mileage covered. One key fits all locks and ignition and every conceivable manual, document and brochure is included. Simply fabulous.
