Basic Information and History
An opportunity to acquire a very rare 1983 Volvo 340 1.4 Variomatic – with a recorded mileage of only 13,960 kilometers!
The car was sold new in Sweden and has had seven previous owners, as documented in the attached Carfax report. Unfortunately, further documentation is missing, but the vehicle has been in the care of collectors and treated with great care. The low mileage makes this car a rare example with potential for future appreciation in value.
Equipment and Options
- Automatic Variomatic belt-driven transmission
- Original wheels
- Original spare wheel in excellent condition
- Original interior in very fine condition
- Repainted tailgate (the rest of the paintwork is original)
Condition
Body and Paint:
The body is in excellent condition, never welded and rust-free. Minor scratches and small dents are present, but overall the car makes a very good impression. The paintwork is largely original, with the exception of the tailgate, which has been repainted at some point.
Glass, Lights, and Chrome Details:
All windows are original and in excellent condition, with no scratches, stone chips, or discoloration. Chrome, trim, light lenses, and emblems are in good condition.
Wheels and Tires:
No damage to the wheels. The tires are all brand new.
Interior:
The interior is in very good condition. No damage or wear on door panels, door sills, or dashboard. The headliner is like new, and the steering wheel, controls, and buttons show only minimal wear.
Mechanical Condition:
The engine is completely original and runs excellently, as does the Variomatic system. The transmission and drivetrain function as they should, and the braking system is in like-new condition.
Service History
The most recent service was carried out recently by the current owner. The following parts were replaced:
- Ignition components (all new)
- Oil and filter
No documented service book is available, but the car passed its most recent inspection (2024-07-01) without any remarks.
Summary
This 1983 Volvo 340 offers a unique opportunity to acquire an unusually well-preserved example with very low mileage. With only 13,960 kilometers and in excellent mechanical and visual condition, this car is ideal for collectors or those looking to own a piece of Swedish automotive history in near-original condition.
The current owner has taken great care of the car and driven it sparingly to preserve its condition. It is rare to find a Volvo 340 Variomatic in this state – and with such low mileage, this example stands out on the market.
