Volvo 244 DL, 1978 г.в.

In over 15 years of my ownership, (I’m the 3rd owner in over50 years) this car has taken me pretty everywhere in Europe. And I rarely have seen a cooler-looking round headlights saloon (I prefer them to estate ones) or in a better colour combination. I (or rather, talented and patient friends, who are also recipients of my infinite gratitude) upgraded "everything" - 5 Corona rims, M46 gearbox with 5 speed overdrive, power steering, electronic ignition (gone are points and condenser, the Achille's heel of LPG systems), GLT black leather interior, dashboard cover, metal plate. All extras are correct for the vintage year: only Coronas were introduced in 79/80 I believe, the front seats are from an early GL and retain the iconic headrests (alongside round headlights, the true design statement of the car). Assumed as one of the few left, used very little in the last two years and obviously in need of care - power steering needs adjustment, o/drive can be temperamental, oil consumption is a tad high, the bodywork needs sorting but it's reasonably solid underneath - and I don’t have the time nor the knowledge/means to accomplish any of those. It can be driven away but needs timing adjustment since hot start problematic in the apocalyptic, new normal summer heat. Rear tyres are almost new. Tax and Ulez-free, not (yet) SORN, cheap to insure, no compulsory MOT, LPG converted (needs an overhaul should you decide do keep it.). Comes with fantastic sounding 50W X 4 alpine bluetooth head unit and pioneer speakers, service folder, V5 in my name and a triple set of keys.Get in touch to learn anything left unsaid by the pictures, or for remaining extra shots as I’m not writing a novel here and really there is quite a lot to say. Don’t even mention the words “drifting,” or "breaking," thank you, we'll soon end up with a billion parts for no cars.Frida Kahlo cushion and leather shift-lever gaiter are not coming with it, sorry.Located in Newham, London E6Come over to see it, tyre-kicking will be magnanimously tolerated. Just do so BEFORE you have won/purchased it. Price is firm, aka non-negotiable. People who suffer from paranoid complexes about fellow human being's honesty please abstain. I'm an honest fella (grin). Same with time wasters, life is too short.
