after getting ride of the c70 i've been running around in a y plate s40 and been saving my pennys. i was looking at the new shape c70 but they're still a bit sore ££££££ so i've bought a mk11 s40.
its an 56 plate se sport 2.0 diesel with full leather and the pro logic sound system with the 6 disc multi changer and sounds amazing.comes with 18"medusas and i think i've fallen in love again after breaking my heart selling the saffy c70.
i nearly bought a t5 c70 soft top back in november but pulled the plug on it so its all good in the end.

Thanked 11 Times in 10 Postsits great to drive,its not as torque as the s60 d5 we used to have but then again i was always on the rev limiter in 1st gear in the s60 when i gave it a bit of poke.
according to the spec its got the same torque as the s40 t5.
its got just over 70k on the clock with lots of receipts including 2 new front wishbones and full service history.2 new rear tyres and it got 2 front tyres 6 months ago for its previous mot.obvously 12 months mot on it now.
