**NEW CLUTCH,TIMING BELT, HUGE HISTORY**
2008 Volvo S40 SE Lux 2.0D - Reliable Daily / Workhorse - Huge History
Very reliable car which has covered nearly 40,000 motorway miles with me since November 2024 without ever missing a beat. Starts first time every time, no smoke, No knocks or bangs, drives extremely well and is extremely comfortable on long journeys. Only selling due to upgrade.
Mechanically the car wants for nothing and has had a large amount of maintenance carried out recently with stacks of invoices over the years.
Recent work includes:
- Timing belt - Nov 2024
- Front & rear discs and pads - Nov 2024
- Heater matrix - Dec 2024
- Clutch, fuel filter & service - Sept 2025
- Front left brake caliper - June 2025
- 3 new tyres - Aug 2025
- and so much more before my ownership
Always run on Shell V-Power diesel during my ownership.
SE Lux spec includes:
- Heated front seats
- Electric memory driver's seat
- Cruise control
- Factory upgraded sound system
- Automatic rain sensors
- Factory alarm
- Front headlight washers
Being completely honest, the bodywork lets the car down cosmetically. Previous owner was an older lady and there are age-related marks and scuffs around the car, but mechanically it has been a fantastic and dependable vehicle.
Known faults:
- Boot sensor thinks the boot is open
- "Park Assist Service Required" message on dash and parking sensors rarely work
- Small chip in windscreen
- air con isn't exactly 'ice cold' could do with regas
None of these issues have affected use of the car during my ownership.
Would make an ideal reliable daily, motorway commuter or workhorse.
Absolutely Loads of paperwork and invoices with the car, this car will need or want nothing for a very long time and will just keep going. Any test drive welcome, first to see will buy.
