Volvo Owners Club Forum - View Single Post - report of possible rust areas to watch out for

Oct 14th, 2005, 19:52

I had a V40 2.0 CD auto as a company car back in 1998, I had it for 4 years and did 85000 miles. Apart from the occassional suspension link I had no problems and the bodywork was fine. So I was happy to buy myself a phase 2 S40D, it was registered Nov 2001, and I have checked all the areas mentioned so far in this thread and I haven't found any rust. Perhaps I have just been lucky. By the way I don't work for Volvo UK or a dealer.
