Default 340 "GLE Limited Edition 1.7"?

Hi All,

I've recently bought a 1988 340 that's been sat in a slightly damp garage for the best part of 20 years. My original plan was to restore it enough to pass an MOT and then sell it on as a running and driving project. I've started to consider doing an engine swap instead but if it's particularly rare then it's obviously best left alone.

I've read about the 300 "Limited Edition" cars that were made in '88 that apparently all had leather seats and a sunroof, in fact I saw one at Volvo 600 last weekend. My car does not have either of these things, and is badged "Limited Edition 1.7" rather than just "Limited Edition". So is there another version I don't know about? Has someone just stuck the badge on the boot of a normal GLE?

If anyone has any ideas what my car actually is and how rare it is/isn't I'd love to know!

Cheers
