    Back to another Volvo :)

    Hi All

    Well i still have my old S40 T4... However last night i bought a 2004 V40 TDI 1.9 that needs work. It had been lowered and the guy punched a hole in the sump and engine stopped.. Hoping it wont be a dead engine but looking for a sump at least 1st to try. does need a few other things also but i am happy with it Will be needing some members help to get this car back on the road and looking like it should
    This is a project car and not a daily

    Hello mate

    I know the v40 you've bought, used to be a bloody mobile disco, ruining everybody's macdonalds in holes bay every Friday and Saturday night.

    Was a "shame" when it stopped turning up

    What plans do you have for it?
