Yes, its being picked up tomorrow!

As I am an all round good egg I have however offered to take it back and refund the money if the buyer isnt happy with it for any reason within the next two weeks. I'll let you know if it becomes available again.

nomashedswede: I have an idea for you.....

Pay Ian, say £50 to adjust the mixture so that the 240 stalls all the time (or something similar...) so that the new buyer will bring the car back within hours!

you cant buy brains...

Very nice find Ian
I love the styling of the 340. It is too bad we could never get these cars here in the States.

Hi Ian,
Your 340 looks very clean and rust free. We had one in blue like yours a 1.4 3 door but older C159 BTA. I would imagine ours is now in the scrapyard as it was very rusty around rear arches and the bottom of the doors. Yours looks as if it was very well looked after. Hope it gives you many years of trouble free motoring like ours did. Regards James.
