Default Modified 2002 S40 T4 for sale

I'm selling my T4 (Vilma) which I've had for 5 and a half years now, here are the details:

52 reg S40 T4 sport lux in Atlantic Blue with cream leather interior
163,000 miles*

Taxed until 31 May, MOT until late August

*Engine, Turbo and Clutch were replaced at 94,000 miles so have done just under 70,000.
The engine was a remanufactured one supplied by Volvo and fitted by MRG Volvo (at a cost of around £4000! )
Alternator, MAF, and many suspension components have also been replaced since the new engine
was fitted.

The modifications are:

Engine:
MTE Custom Remap
14T-16G hybrid turbo
200 Cell Race Cat
2.5" Jetex cat back exhaust

She has produced around 270-275bhp and 310 lb ft on Powerstations dyno on two separate occasions.

Chassis:
Bilstein Sports Shock Absorbers
Eibach springs (30mmm lower)
17" Wheels with 215/45 Goodyear Eagle F1's (new at the front)
Goodridge braided brake hoses, Black diamond pads at the front
OMP strut brace

Interior:
Autometer Oil Pressure, Temperature and Boost Pressure gauges.

Full service history (all by MRG since the new engine was fitted)

Good bits:
Its in excellent condition for the age and mileage, no dents, big scratches or missing pieces of trim and
the interior is pretty much perfect. I have receipts for literally thousands spent at MRG over the past few years.

Bad bits:
Two of the wheels have slight buckles from potholes, only a cosmetic problem but can't be fixed so the only solution
would be a new set of wheels.

There is currently a boost problem, although the engine is mapped to hit around 1.4 - 1.5 bar in the midrange it is
peaking at 1 bar at the moment. I have swapped the Boost Control Solenoid, Turbo Recirculation Valve one of the MAP sensors and tightened the wastegate actuator but no luck so far. I suspect the wastegate actuator itself may need replacing, either that or a boost leak (although the idle is very steady).
I think a new wastegate actuator is probably around £70.

Looking for £2,000

I'm selling her because I really need a diesel doing 20,000 miles a year, and after 5 years I'd like a change.
Also I have always wanted a BMW...

Hopefully she can go to a good home rather than being part exchanged,
thanks for looking

Tim

Don't suppose you'd consider selling the clear running lights? Pm me with a price if you do

Sorry, I'd prefer to keep all the bits on the car. I got them from Parts for Volvos Online, about £10 each iirc

Can't believe this hasn't sold - an absolute belter. If I hadn't shelled out and committed to my own build, I would have it at the drop of a hat. Hope someone comes along and it sells to someone on here who will treat it as intended. Best of luck.
