As you're all probably aware by now..I'm new to the world of volvo.

I've literally just bought an s40, 1.8 standard bi-fuel and have no idea what can be done to the engine :slap:

Any info would be great!

Cheers,

Luke

I would leave the engine standard and make the most of the economy. I would add some nice 17/18" alloy wheels, maybe lower slightly, and consider a subtle cat back exhaust for aural pleasure IMO of course.

Have you any pics of your car ?

not yet, will get some tonight as im still driving the corsa (let my dad have one more days grace in it to go to leicester!)

Dont suppose anyone wants to buy a mint, cheap run-around?! s reg corsa, 31k on clock, cat 1 alarm/ immob, mint throughout! £1500 quid!

Any idea where i can get a din plate for the head unit?

Think ill put some 18's on, drop it 30mm, and uprate the component speakers.. then leave it to be!

Not sure on tinting the windows...id only go for a light smoke, but i dont want it to look tacky.

Tints look nice, and with uprated speakers you can get a really nice system in a S40 !

EDIT: They are 125 bhp, circa 10 sec 0-60 and 130mph MAX.
