I think it is 340, but I will not argue with DAF555 - he is better in Volvos than me, but... |

You could be right, but the 340:s I found all have black grilles without chrome. But on the other hand this car lacks the chrome on the bumpers.. ![]() |

340 DL? http://www.mcroston.co.uk/volvo340.php |

Hmm, I looked through some sales literature. Didn´t get much wiser though. It seems like 340 L/DL should have the black grille for 1982-85. No chrome until next facelift. for the 1986 models. But the 340 GLS looks exactly like the 360. This one doesn´t quite fit, maybe it´s varieties on different markets, or it has simply got the grille replaced some time during its nearly twenty years on the road? I´ll put it to 1982 343, first year with this look. |

I do not understand french much but I never saw 360 with only 3 doors - look at this "De plus, l’appellation Volvo 343 et Volvo 345 est remplacée par Volvo 340 et Volvo 360, ce dernier modèle étant exclusivement équipé du moteur Volvo 2 litres." citing from: www.volvo300mania.com |

« The name Volvo 343 and Volvo 345 is replaced by Volvo 340 and Volvo 360, this last model only had (or was the only one to have?) the 2-liter Volvo engine. » |

Here in Sweden both series were available with 3,4 or 5 doors. The 2 Litre engine was available in the 340 DL at least 1983, I have no reference for 1984. In 1985 it´s only in the 360. |

Looks like a DK model with the repeater. |

I think all 340 had them in those years not just DK. |

I think it is MY84 or MY85. 1) Facelift front MY82-MY85. 2) No air vent behind rear side window. This was present >MY83. 3) Front wing side indicator repeater MY82 - MY85. 4) Door mirror location at front corner of frame MY84> 5) No front side window quarterlight MY84> |
