Talking Just bought my first S40 T4



Proud owner of this little S40 T4 Greyline, only had a little bit of rust.

Congrats on the purchase. They are nice to drive and fantastic to have that extra poke when needed.
Looks in good condition, could do with some alloy wheels on there.

Nice looking motor. Does need some alloys though, someone has changed them at sometime.

Ahh... a good old phase 1 model. Looks nice, why someone would put steel wheels on I don't know but they do let it down IMO. Get some alloys (16 inch is standard, craters ideally) and it will transform how it looks.
Enjoy the fun of driving it.

Wel I did get to pairs of extra tires for it, 4 pieces of 16" BBS Craters and 4 pieces of Zito GTR 18", These are just the winter tires.

Ah if they are on for winter tyres then fair enough, I would do the same in that case and have some nice alloys for spring and summer.

Yes, it's nice to come to a warm car in the morning cold.
