Default Probably Not 240- Any Ideas??

"Floor trays" in my newly acquired '85 245 as attached.

They don't appear to be for a 240 compared with those on Ebay etc-

Front pax side lacks the upward front footwell sloping bit

Both front mats lack the scalloped rear edge that fits the footwell shape under where the front of the seat is.

Rears are "waisted in" at the front (as if to clear a narrower pair of seat runners)- others I've seen are simply rectangular.

Any ideas, please?

Possibly for a 7/9-series car if they're Volvo ones?

Well done, Lucien- almost spot on, though the front ones on the Ebay listing have shaved corners at the rear.

I never considered non-estate candidates...

Best,
Dave

They are indeed 300 series, are they for sale?

I know a couple of people who might want them.

Maybe- I was trying to establish whether they were 240s, if not, I'd offer them for whichever is the correct model and put anything raised towards the cost of authentic 240 ones.

Thanks for the tip- I'd rather they go on the correct model and have the correct ones on mine, if that makes sense!

Pls let me know if you know someone who wants them, otherwise I'll drop a line on the 300 series sales section.

Thanks,
Dave
