Body/Trim: - Under bonnet insulation?

hennabm · Apr 22nd, 2015, 19:39

Hi all

While I am going round the car cleaning off at least 8 years of muck and grime, I have come to the underbonnet.

My question is - were there any of the 240 range fitted with under bonnet insulation and if so which models?

TIA

Mine is, it's a 1992 Torslanda. I think I read somewhere that earlier models didn't have it though.

Hi Angie

Thanks for the reply. I wonder if one will fit my 89 model??????

Cheers

Most 240s didn't have them. Don't need it.

My 91 SE has the whole underside of the bonnet covered. Should fit an 89 I would have thought.

My 92 GL has it. I don't know if it is original.
