2001 Volvo

Here for sale is my 2001 Volvo S40 T4 Sport 2.0 Turbo in the extremely rare Panama Yellow.

Sadly, the car came with no history. So I immediately had the cambelt/water pump/tensioner replaced, along with the oscillation damper pulley (crank pulley) as there was a slight wobble under load. I didn't want to risk driving 3 hours each way with the worn belt.

Here is a quick run-down of the spec:

2001 Volvo S40 T4 2.0 Turbo - with VVT (Variable Valve Timing) / 200bhp from factory

116,000 miles

1 of 8 Panama Yellow S40s left on UK roads

Aircon

Full Black leather

Cruise control

Headlamp washers

Tax till June 2014

MOT till October 15th 2014

New cam belt

New water pump

New tensioner

New oscillation damper (crank pulley) cost me £120 direct from Volvo (the only place I could get it)

Induction kit

Bailey dump valve (not overly loud)

Centre exhaust box removed (gives a bit more of a sporty note)

Lowered

Factory fitted Xenons

De-badged grill

18" Lenso RS5 imitation split rims in Black

Brand new low profile tyres on the front

5-6mm tyres on the rear

Performance drilled/grooved front discs

Smoked side markers

Smoked side indicators

Air bags up the ying yang.. drivers, passengers, side curtains, door bags.

Despite being a Volvo, it only weighs 1280kg and will leave a Civic Type R for dead =]

Bad points:

Aircon works but is weak, would require a recharge for the summer months (if they ever come)

Dent on the o/s rear quarter, this is the only defect to the bodywork.

If like me you are nearing middle age, the lowered suspension isn't too kind on the lower back.

Minute tear to side of drivers seat.

Passenger side headlamp wiper missing.

Cigarette lighter doesn't appear to work.

Any questions, just ask.
