VOLVO S40 T4 CD
Picked it up today, very smooth and fast drive.
well pleased with it, what a difference to the corsa.
all mod cons including cruise control etc electric everything, good stereo as standard..heated leather....blah blah
200bhp
0-60=7secs
146mph.
plans
18" multi spokes
slight drop in suspension (30mm)
exhaust
a few quick shitty pics, will get good ones later.






Bonnet is open in this one, why it's sitting up..



opinions......
