Thanks guys. Nice to hear positive comments, especially when it's something quite important like a for sale advert, especially as I've never done one before. I'm unsure if I've priced it right. I bought it for £4125 in October with 84k on it. As you can see in here I've had a lot done in such a...

Rear pic looks awesome :cool:

@MrBlonde Do you drive along the A414 (Ware/Harlow) around 7am on weekdays. I always see a clean cup along there on my way to work.

Your obsessed mate!

Cheers Ste. Having had one now, i wouldn't have one again with my distance of driving. With the current distance i do i thought id be better off but i dont think i am. Brilliant on long journeys, but i dont do enough to warrant the diesel, although this is a lovely car to be in when i do! First...

Here is the for sale advert for those who are interested: http://www.cliosport.net/threads/2007-volvo-s40-2-0d-se-%C2%A33800.791649/ This is my first ever advert i've done so please give me any advice or criticism if its needed.

American pic-ups just look so cool. And with added brute force are even cooler.

Nice mate. Get those horrid stickers off the side, and replace the badges/wheel diamonds for some standard ones and your onto a winner. Do like a BG but pain to keep clean. However, when they are clean and when the sun pops out, the gold fleck looks amazing.

Cheers Tom. Currently writing up a for sale advert now but i've never done one before! I dont know where to start! I just want it gone as being on here doesn't help my want for another 182!

Yep, air leak. Have you checked the gasket on the throttle body to inlet? I had the same issue with mine and it turned out to be the throttle body gasket. Only a couple of quid from renault. I take it all plugs are clipped in?

@Nyall Here is a few pics of how it sits on the Bilsteins/Eibachs.

A few pics from this morning which i will add for the for sale advert:

I'm pretty sure that I did read that the hubs was easier to change than the bearings themselves. Problem is guys, I reckon I'm close to have spent £1500 in 4 months on it and I haven't owned it 6 months yet! Actually the guy on the PFV place did say that they would put lower it as much as the...

Absolutely no problems with scraping whatsoever. I think it's settled a bit, probably is 25mm but looks oem still. Well more oem+ actually. I took some more pics today so I'll chuck them in here once I've uploaded them. Yeah parts for Volvo are a great company to deal with. Spoke to the chap on...

@Nyall The setup is great. Would 100% recommend the setup. It's great and rather cheap too if you get it from "partsforvolvo" online. I paid £400 for the both all-round and that includes delivery which arrived in 3 days. It looks oem as rides great too. I bought the top mounts from eBay for a...

Get them in the peak rev zone on some twistys and they are brilliant. That's part of the reason we come back. Smiles per miles, for not a lot of money.

Car has just had a new genuine battery fitted and the software reinstalled as it decided to go and not recognise any of my keys. I thought it was the infamous antenna ring, but after taking it to a Volvo specialist (which was very local and I never knew existed)he diagnosed it as the software...

I actually think the engine bay looks better with the standard top mounts over your old AST ones too. How comes the change of exhaust?

Awesome Marc!

Don't get me wrong, turinis look awesome. There is a reason why there so popular on the clios. Turinis will look sportier than OEM wheels too. I've just seen a few threads with the OEM wheels and lows and it looks great, but they do weigh significantly more that other wheels. What color would...

Or get these sprayed a OEM colour. However, I'm really loving the original wheels at the mo....

That was from 2007 bud. Have you seen the powerflex inserts for these? Or @levaz ones that he does? They look very good imo.

Yeah, I know all about de-skinning! Yeah, just from a sensor the difference is better. Hard to believe really.

No as I'm currently not on the works insurance (but I think that's changing with the next few months as we're moving and doing a few changes, although I've driven them around the yard. They either run a LS3 (pictured) or Aston straight 6.

I'm in a small team that make production limited kit/sports cars. We also restore some cars for the love of cars show. I'm in the mechanical area, but try a bit of everything.

Which one Matt? Because on my old ph1 the pre cat one was a right nightmare to access.

Yeah I know. I went with work as we got free tickets, but wouldn't have paid for them otherwise. Our work cars was right next to them (Mike and Edd) Burgundy two seater, escort van and DBR1 model.

I've always thought these look awesome, even if they don't do much. They look a lot better than the cheaply looking omp ones.

@DaveDreads I was at that classic resto show too. Thought it was a bit pants if I'm honest.

Pro race 1.2's work so well on clios. They're like turinis for the track world.
