For sale is my daily runner volvo t4 turbo (200 hp)
I've had this since may but the time has come to let it go due to the fact I just can't figure out what the hell is wrong with it!
It was running fine and then suddenly one day..no boost. The next day when I took the car out for a drive there was no boost until it hits 4k rpms, then there's a bucket load of it. Have looked into it on the web and can find nothing. No eml on either. Since the problem with the turbo she has started to loose a very small amount of coolant too. I'm sure the two problems are related. I've done a compression test and there appears to be no leaks on the head gasket. The car still drives and at present I'm doing 250 miles a week in it, but I can't justify throwing any more money at it when I still have another car in the driveway.

Car has
Full leather seats(supremely comfortable)
Built in booster seats in rear seat
Air con
Trip computer(mpg range etc)
Fsh including some eye watering bills for a head rebuild this year
Cambelt done this year
Condition wise I would give it 8.5/10

Would break for much more than I'm asking but I cannot be arsed with it if I'm honest!

Might do when time allows stu. Just thought I would give every one on here a chance first.
I've still got the e30 so will be using that again!
Can't believe I never had a lot of interest in the e30 at the price I put it up for, all the others I've seen on eBay have gone over
