Description
A little over two years ago, the son took over the car and, like his father, has stored it in a garage. Now, it is being sold to a new owner who will have the privilege of owning this well-preserved original vehicle.
The car has recently been serviced, including a new timing belt, and it is equipped with newer Michelin tires. It comes with the owner's manual, service booklet, and factory data specifications from Volvo.
Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
Starts easily and runs smoothly in terms of engine, gearbox, and chassis without any issues. There is occasionally a slight squeak inside the steering column when maneuvering. It has not been inspected on a lift, but pictures from the last inspection appear to show the underside to be in very good condition. There was some sticking when opening the hood, probably due to needing some adjustments or lubrication.
-
Interior condition
The front and back seats have always had covers and are almost in new condition. Even the door panels, carpets, headliner, etc. are in very good original condition.
-
Exterior condition
In very nice and well-preserved original condition. The paint has some stone chips, minor scratches and a small dent. Easy to fix. Glass, chrome, wheels and tires in very good condition. The engine and luggage compartment are also in excellent condition.
-
General condition
Just moments ago, it was a common sight in everyday traffic, and suddenly it becomes an unusual sight. Furthermore, when it is in this condition with genuine and well-known history, being a daily driver with low mileage and nicely equipped, all the buying signals start to flash. This is a 35-year-old classic that evokes nostalgic feelings from the final years of the welfare state.

Facts about the model
For the 1988 model year, there were various equipment versions, and a GLT 16 Valve with higher power was introduced. The regular GLE version had 131 horsepower and was an equipment package with features such as extended chrome, alloy wheels, velvet upholstery, central locking, and more.
After years of hectic family life and hard work in professional traffic, the population of these workhorses is rapidly diminishing. For those that have been well cared for and survived, a new era begins as a enthusiast car.
