I lold at that, you must be a real enthusiast to join the club 5 days ago and jumping ship already. I hate people who register on car enthusiast forums just to sell there car.

It actually delivers 354bhp but I was rounding it down. Maybe if you contact British Swedish Racing BSR Ltd they will tell you all the technical stuff. The box of tricks that I refer to in my first post that provides the tuning via mapping would come with the sale, and costs approx £800.

Have you had the car on a dyno? Do you have the printouts?

I've got a BSR310 on my V70R AWD - Combined with a Jetex cat-back exhaust it produced 248.8whp last time it was Dyno'd. Looking at possibly 270 (guessing here .. ) at the flywheel once you take into account AWD and Autobox drag losses. Thats from a "310" map.

Engineer - the difference is that the "stage 2" kit (Which really should be called something else!) has the BSR Exhaust.

This tuning can be applied or removed in 15min. The car has covered 39000 from new. I would like to know how much this car is worth approximately as unfortunately i have now got to sell my beloved Volvo.

I'm not interested in the box of tricks...just one question from me......ATACAMA??

Nordkap blue! Sounds like that won't be the answer you wanted. However have listened to the guys on this forum I think maybe even with the low mileage (39000) any offers over £8000 would have to be considered. Wrong leather maybe for you, but great example of an R

Phew.........it is actually the answer that I wanted to hear. Don't get me wrong, I DO WANT Atacama........but last week a house sale fell through and I would have had the money for this little beauty. Now the house is unsold, and therefore no money, then the pain is less knowing the leather is blue.

Cracking car..........maybe I might find another buyer for the house........soon

Good luck with that, houses more important.... Atacama is a great colour i admit but when your really quick maybe you don't have to shout about it.

What am i going on about? I would have liked Atacama aswell cause nobody notices subtle, but the Flash green exterior generally does the job. Anyway its here if anyone wants it. Will post full details if anybody is interested.

I don't have a problem with people registering just to sell their cars. There is a big wide world outside of this, and any other Volvo forum, and I think it is great that someone has the courtesy to offer their car to us enthusiasts, before going public, ala autotrader, pistonheads etc...

A sale is a sale and I know but if someone from here can benefit from this, then bring on the newbies......
