Fairly cheap complete example of the 242 GT asking $9,950 on marketplace in early 2024. The seller noted this is a matching numbers car. 227,400 original km. 4 speed with over drive manual. Clean and tidy interior. Patina paint work, very straight body, still running original K-Jet mechanical fuel injection, drives nice and quiet the time capsule. This 242GT sat for 25 years before I owned it...

Spotted a few big 242GT projects over the years - this one located in Morriset NSW in January 2025, asking just $1,650. Bargain if you are after all the rare bits and a few replacement panels! Looks like it has a blue modification plate, bit not clear what mods have been completed. Good find for rare spares or a project!

This is one of the saddest 242 GTs we've seen. Located in Sydney, Australia, it was asking $1500 AUD in May 2023.. It has severe rust, and you'd have to be a very serious enthusiast panel beater to want to take it on and restore.. I suspect that sadly this example won't see a rebuild, but will likely be parted out or bought for parts on another more solid project base. Anyway, it's great to be...

Advertised on Facebook marketplace and located in Denver Colorado - this poor old soul would no doubt have been parted out, having had seen much better days. Not certain of the year, but it appears to be a 79 model at the earliest with the later tail lamps, and being a US car, it came with the Lambda Sond emissions system. Shame to see it like this, but you never know, someone might just have...

Looks like this one has had a long life, with 511,000km on the clock! Paint is looking like a "patina" restoration :) - the seller claimes its one of 580 buitlt in the world, but we know that at least 600 of these cars came to Australia alone: Click here for information on the 242 GT: This example was offered on Lloyds auctions in September 2021. Given the tiredness of this example, I'd value it...

This 242 GT was advertised in several places including on FB Marketplace in May 2021, asking $16,500 - a fairly reaosnable price considering several lately have been over 20k.. The seller at the time noted this car is registered and reliable , has had a cylinder head overheal, with new valves, new water pump, brake booster, etc. It was offered with a complete spare engine and gearbox. The car is...

This German spec 242 GT was offered for sale on dasparking.de in May 2021, asking over 20K Euros. These were vey similar to the Australian and NZ spec cars, with the 2.3 engine upgrade, but interestingly this particular car has the headlamp wipers. This car is in immaculate condition, ready to roll - impressive for a car this age, which would have normally been exposed to far too much saly and ice...

Found on carfromuk - this example is believed to have been offered on Ebay a few years back.It looks in excellent original condition (At the time, it was asking under $10,000, so it was provbably around 2010).. Values have gone up a bit since then. Interestingly, this is the later 2.3 car, but has the older style anodised black mirrors (indicating there was probably a changeover period where they...

A late model Australian delivered 242 GT, this one spotted on carsales.com.au with just over 72,000km! Looks in great condition for its age, and asking over $20,000. 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. At the time this one was advertised, the seller noted the car has power...

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...

Images of this 242 GT have been floating around the internet for some time, but it's only recently that I've discovered that this car ius a rare late model Australian delivered model, which had as standard quad headlamps. According to a couple of sources only the last 30 or so delivered 242 GTs had the quad lamps. There are quite a few 242 GTs on the register now, and now there is a source for all...

Found this one advertised on Facebook Marketplace in April 2021.Asking $11,000 at the time, I thought it was a buit steep - but the car is actually a CAMS log booked and approved race car, (roll cage seats etc all fitted). The car apparently has a long history of competing in Australia in rally (desert) and tarmac events. Looks complete, but very rough (to be expected). Could be a great project if...
