vehicle description:

Volvo S40 2.0 d se.SE stands for special equipment in this case the Volvo option winter pack that is, Heated front seats, self dipping rear view mirror , rain sensitive automatic wipers(can be switched on or off just an option) and front fog lights. This car is loaded with features on top of the winter pack we have leather seats, Electric tilt or slide full glass sunroof,  wood trim on the dash and doors, electric adjustable heated mirrors, 6 disk cd changer, multi speaker stereo front and rear theatre lighting interior lights , foot well lights (the interior lights stay on for 5 - 10 seconds before they slowly fade out not just go off) , remote central locking, also does a natty thing it has button to press that puts on the interior lights and the outside sidelights so you can find the car in a car park in the dark however it is still locked until you press to unlock, Also it has see you home lights meaning the headlights stay on (if set) after the car is all shut down to light your way for up to 2 minutes.
                           I have loads of receipts as I do my own servicing. The car has had 4 brand new good year tyres, a new battery and new alternator in the last 12 months.I have also replaced the clutch and dmf (clutch was starting to slip once I  had it stripped down it was more sense to do the dmf while I was there).The car has had the daytime running light"s turned off at a Volvo dealer as you need to access the computer to do it. I preferred them off but they can be put back on at a dealer cost around £40.
                  The best thing about this car is it has no diesel particulate filter. These things are the devils work and the reason for most modern diesel car problems. This car is about as new as you can get without having one fitted which saves a load of headaches and bills. Also this car is not thirsty you can get up to 40 mpg and even better on the motorway. It has a 6 speed box so 6 is for the motorway as you can do 80 mph + at only 1500 rpm ! The 2.0 engine is a Peugeot unit used in many cars and is bomb proof .This car is just approaching 98,000 and will do that again no problem.
               Ford bought out Volvo some time ago so basically this car has the running gear of a Ford focus with the comfort of much a more prestige car at half the price of a Focus ghia or titanium trim car. In fact if should ever need mechanical parts ask for Focus bits as they are the same and a lot cheaper than Volvo branded parts.
      The car has two known faults.
1.The outside temperature reading tends to say -8 even in July !  It can be repaired with a new sensor and wiring for £30 but I never got around to it. It will work correctly for months then will go into -8 mode at random.
2.The air-con does not work I had it re gassed and it worked for about 2 months and now nothing I suspect a leek. The heating and ventilation otherwise is fine.
I am only selling the car as I am self employed and needed to get a van so my cherished car has to go. It is listed at a bargain price because of its faults as these cars can go for 3k +.
Please e-mail with any questions or any picture requests. The car can be viewed before the auction ends but no offers to end the auction early will be entertained I will let the auction run to the end. Also due to insurance no test drives but I will drive you for a test.
Finally a disclaimer for the numptees out there. If you win the auction the car is yours don"t tell me your 5 year old clicked by mistake. I do not wish to px for any other vehicle, boat or a PlayStation thanks.
