Hi all I have a 1998 Volvo S40 2.0 se that will probably be up for sale soon what will people offer me for it as spares or repairs has got tax and test,has had a full service by myself, would make a good track car or project car.
The bad bits: will either need two sills or welding at the back as they are rotted.
will need a new passenger front window motor.
will need a new gasket in between cat and centre.
will need a new front o/s wing (as its has rust on it and a hole no bigger than a 1p coin)
will need a gear selector (when in reverse goes in to first and does struggle to go into other gears sometimes)
will need tracking doing
it bottoms out sometimes over bumps.
emissions light comes (intermittent).
side lights sometimes come on when key is not in ignition which stops car from starting (intermittent)
the car does have age related marks as it is a 15 year old car.
does have a slight power steering pump leak.
will need an n/s front tyre
the only good thing about the car is that it has only done 80165 miles and the timing belt wont need changing for 3 years (only know this as there is a date on belt on when it was last done) has got a good solid engine pulls like a train in every gear when is has not got its problems with not going in to gear,i just don't have the time and money to get the car sorted
too good to scrap due to engine been goon and only having low miles, i nobody on here as been as honest as me to say what's wrong with there car, would love to keep the car but it has to go one way or another at some point, will be sad to see it go.
photos are on the link below.
