This is one of the very last Australian delivered Volvo 242GTs - one of 30 odd care in 1980 to have the quad lamp front ejnd fitted (all earlier models had single round lamps). Relatively high Ks but normal for a car this age, and it seems to have held up relatively well. These 242 GTs are hard to find and this example, asking $11,000 in 2021, presents a reaosnable opportunity price wise - spotted on gumtree Australia in May 2021.

CHeck out the others below on the 242 GT register. For more information, check out this link to the Volvo 242 GT history, information and specifications guide.
