HAHA!! :-)
It's likely to be a Hyundai i40 Tourer. The garage will finally be cleared. But I'll have nothing to tinker with and maintain. It makes me shiver. There's a bit that needs doing to her before I can think about selling, alternator, get the turbo repaired, fit the heated seats, towbar etc. So she'll be with me a while before I let her go. Cheers, Daniel

What's the adhesive like on the trim? Is it a spongy pad, or something solid? Is the finish as good as the original Volvo trim? I am sure that would look great on the back of my dark red S40 and no drilling any holes either! Mine also has the chrome button on the boot. Cheers Gary

The adhesive is on a thin rubber and sticks like sh1t to a blanket - I have to admit I havent seen an original trim up close, so couldnt compare, but I am plenty pleased and it looks great. I can get some more pics if it helps and if you wanted to have a look, I am in Reading....

Unfortunately, I live in Montrose, between Aberdeen and Dundee, in the North East of Scotland, so photos will have to suffice. Look forward to seeing some more pics. Thanks Gary
