[v40p2]

Hi All

Im selling my 2003 V40 1.9D Sport 115bhp which i have owned since April 2015.

I bought it on 82k from Paul Rigby Volvo dealer in Brimingham.

The car is in great condition for its age and has been well maintained.

Modifications made are
- fitting the single US in dash cup holder
- braded hoses on the braking system
- fitting a phase 1 cubby hole in boot space (partially complete).

Will be selling with a set of genuine volvo v40 roof bars and new set of brembo brake discs, air filter and anything else related to the car i have.

The car has the 16" bbs wheels which i had refurbed and powder coated in May 2016 and dunlop blue resonse tyres all round with good life in them.

It will also have 12months MOT on it.

Car returns around 50+ mpg with fresh oil in it.

It is in metalic grey and when clean the body looks like new as it has been waxed polished, clay bar treatment by me. There is the odd minimal mark due to age, its not a show car but does look great.

I keep a spreadsheet of all the work i have done:

The car looks and drives great.
I have purchased a 7 seater for the family hence sale (+wife needs a small runaround), i will be very sad to see this car go. As it has been bulletproof.

It has full grey leather heated seats, AC, genuine rubber mats.
Interior is very clean.
Comes with a Brodit mount.
Also comes with a Pioneer BlueTooth double din head unit (fitted a few months ago).
Original book and 2x keys.
Central locking works fine and power windows all round.

Bad bits:
- the heater blower has been erratic for several years, which is a common problem, i have not changed the it a it is still usable.
- one of the abs sensors needs cleaning/replacing
- every now and then the airbag light comes on (minor common fault)
- i have removed the siren from behind the drivers wing (another common fault as the battery had expired) and i dont see the need of the alarm siren.

I will be advertising it for £2000 on popular sites but i would prefer to sell it to a fellow forum member who will appreciate the car and will want to own it and look after it like I have with a view to owning it a maintaining it forever! These are solid cars built to last! And they were in the top 20 most reliable cars of their era!

I am offering it here on for £1500 – no offers.

I live in Heald Green, Cheadle, Cheshire, SK8 area.

Not go round to taking pics but i have attached one from last summer.
