Just advertised my V40 locally on Gumtree (Dorset) if anyone here is in the market to take on a fantastic sample of a V40.
A few details: B4204S2 engine, 134,800 miles, MOT till Feb2020, new tyres in Jan 19, timing belt by Volvo at 129,500 miles, gearbox oil changed by Volvo at the same time. 2001 'Y' reg, air con, cruise control, mud flaps, rear spoiler, leather heated seats, heated adjustable wing mirrors, etc.
Bodywork better than excellent - I don't know how to put photos on here (unless someone tells me!) but there are pictures on the Gumtree (Dorset) website. Just search 'Volvo V40'.
Above are the pros, the cons are: i) the drivers heated seat sometimes comes on with the ignition and needs to be switched off if not required. ii) the remote central locking fob does not work. I've been locking manually for a few months. iii) Occasionally an engine icon appears on the screen but disappears shortly after. This was looked into when it first happened and it was thought to be an intermittent wiring fault. Its been like that for several years.
It's on at £750 ono but I'd let it go for £500. Reply here if you're interested or reply direct through the Gumtree website.
Thanks for looking,
Cheers, sarumboy
