Ok, all recovered again, i have found and paid for my other motor so this is it!

Pictures are here all 19 of them and here is some information:

Sale Price is £800 for all this:

1998 1855cc T4 V40 200bhp as standard
124,000mls This is the Forged Piston engine

Just been MOT`ed this morning so 12 months and 1 week MOT
Taxed untill end of this month Nov 2011
124,000mls was 112,000 when i bought 30 months ago
Cambelt at 105,000
Replaced all engine mounts
One rear suspension mount replaced
O2 Sensors x2 done 10,000 ago
Cam Sensor
Temperature Sensor
Thermostat
New Rear discs and Pads 2 months ago
Front Pads 2 months ago
Track Rod Ends 2 months ago
New Brake Fluid
New Coils
New Volvo Plugs
Volvo Air Filter
Volvo Oil Filter
Oil changed 1,000 ago Castrol Magnetec 10W 40
New Heavy Duty Battery


Electric Air Horns

Clutch All OK
ABS OK
DSA OK
Gearbox OK
I won`t list all the standard spec. as all electric as this is the CD model
x4 Electric Windows, Non leaking Sunroof etc. etc. ect.

Some laqcuer peeling to rear but easily rectified

No dents or what you call bad scratches

This motor is completely standard except for the tweaking of the actuator rod with 19lb of boost still economical for the power used

There is now no spare exhaust manifold or turbo unless you want to buy for an extra £100

I can`t think of anything else but ask whatever you want!


Just remembered as i have been through the receipts:

New FPR on Fuel Rail
New High Pressure Fuel Pump
New Large Fuel Filter by rear wheel


Lastly, if the car tax is the worry we can work something out to help!

Seriously tempted as that is one sorted car that has been well looked after and wanted for nothing!

Thanks for your reply

I will even tax the car for 6 months for the £800 and with it`s MOT it won`t need any money spending on it for a long time

I have never asked for help with the T4 as i have done what fails and it will last another 60,000 for the cambelt.

It is a shame really as i have had no inquires and i know it is the wrong time of year for a car sale but then i have bought one so why can`t i sell my powerfull & economical T4??

The the thing is i have a long drive i can easily fit 4 cars on so with 3 Volvo`s the T4 will be stuck up the end by the garage and i will just see it go to oblivian, well we will see what ebay says?

I try hard on here as i want it looked after by a Volvo enthusiast and not just to be rag arsed about by a boy racer!

Problem I've found is that people see a 2.0 turbo performance car and instantly think it'll be a gas gusler, when in reality if they're driven sensibly you can get decent mpg, added to that volvo aren't very hi on the popularity list, most people see them as old mans cars (no offense to anyone there just underated cars) your probably in the same boat as me and would rather keep the car than sell for peanuts....

I've got to admit the market is ****e at the minute which means its a good time to buy a car but its a ****ty time to try and sell one...

Think I'm just going to keep mine another 6 months then I'll have saved even more dosh for the next car and I won't mind if the T4 worth a little less.....
