What do you think of this new type of video?!

[@yerunski]

Meer graag! :)

[@Robbo123]

Awesome Guys, I like this format! 👍😀🔥🇳🇱 It would be a great addition to your channel!

[@oskaripaukkunen7971]

This video brought out your sense of humor which made the video better imo, and that’s brilliant addition to your videos 😂👍🏻

[@natasmgr]

Please continie, i like your POV videos, but this Type is a real entertainment.

[@abbzb2083]

These will get you to 3mil in no time. Love the work lads

[@oskaripaukkunen7971]

More videos like this guys! Keep up the good work 💪🏻

[@raymondselley5747]

Yes I agree.

[@renaudcag]

Unbelievable what you can get for 2000€ ! And this car is more than just decent, I want a daily like that 😁 Keep up doing doing videos like that, it's good to see you talking together guys. V40 sales will explode from now 😁

[@GronforsR]

In Finland you can get those cars easily for like 500€ :D of course good ones cost more.

[@dutchdna]

@@GronforsR In the USA, it would be $4000.

[@GronforsR]

@@dutchdna yeah, i've heard that there cars cost way more. For example here you can Volkswagen Beetle 2012 for like 5000-1000 approx. But some american people pay like 30000 for them

[@dutchdna]

@@GronforsR I just checked and an average 2012 Beetle is about 10K here. I live in Texas but originally from The Netherlands. When you buy a cheap car here, below 1-2k range , they are usually really bad.

[@dutchdna]

@@GronforsR The good thing is that when you buy a car new here, they are way cheaper. Sometimes almost half the price as compared to The Netherlands. Low sales tax in the USA.

[@muzzlebreaker42]

Please more cheap car challenges was really fun to watch

[@manolisstratakis]

That is absolutely perfect! I have been waiting to this. Let's go.

[@TJWCars]

Sell the Ferrari and buy another V40. Honestly, congrats on that purchase. Once a Volvo lover, always a Volvo lover ♥

[@HisQ]

I absolutely love my 2004 V40 2.0T Classic! Bought mine for 1100€ with 295k km last summer and had to put another 1000€ onto it to fix litlle issues. Since the fixes it has been so reliable and fun car to drive so far. Safe, comfortable and fun car! If any of you are looking for one of these, get the 2.0T model from 03-04. You get the best performance and modernised look compared to the older ones. Glad to see you guys trying this video format, works great and love to see more videos like these!

[@addd717]

Love the V40 that was my first car had the late model 2003 1.9 diesel, i might actually buy that one again:) The drive was very comfortable.

[@bwane8869]

That french motor it's a 1.9 dci of Renault 🇨🇵

[@addd717]

@@bwane8869 Yes, the base is Mitsubishi if i am not mistaken and also the transmission is Renault if i remember correctly.

[@threesixty4486]

I drove the 90Hp TD. It wasn't even common-rail and slow up to the point that merging on the highway was downright dangerous. I remember the ride to be really comfortable though. The T4 was on my wishlist at that time, but most were beat-up or too expensive. Great that they found one for this money!

[@addd717]

@@threesixty4486 Mine was the strongest one i think it was 115 or 118HP and it really pulled. Mine was really looked after bought it from Belgium as a 13 yrs old car with 123K done genuine.

[@nikolakurjakovic2188]

@@threesixty4486 I have 95 hp version of v40, you can check some vids on my channel. have acceleration videos and other stuff 👍

[@martinkary4057]

I have bought my v40 with 1,8 engine and green body in Vlaardingen around 2-3 years ago. Loving it ever since. Now watching AutoTopNL will be more personal for me and greater fun. Have fun, have it large. Best regards.

[@macmanipowermacbookprair4110]

This engine is actually the same engine as the T5 or the T6 from Volvo but in the S40/V40 with only four cilinders. It's called the Volvo modular engine. Like this type of video, last year I bought myself a XM V6 with 200hp and a manual gearbox for 450 euros with APK. Bodywork is pour but it is a lot of fun to have a "fast" cheap car. Cruises nice at 210km/h in Germany.

[@sebastiaanlambrechtsen6128]

Nog niet volledig leeg gelopen op onderhoud en reparaties?, Ik weet wat voor een dramas het kunnen zijn ;)

[@SSammy-1]

Just sold my V40 T4 a few days ago, last owner drove it over 3000km with 3liters oil missing from B4194T 5.8 OIL CAPACITY still ran like a champ.

[@newdutchworkshop7026]

Nice find! I had a V40 2.0T for 3 years and it was great. Be sure to check if the wastegate actuator still opens at the correct pressure. They tend to wear out and you won't make as much boost as you should (ask me how I know...)

[@fidelcastro4783]

how do you know?

[@thomasriver3546]

This brings back some nice memories. My first car was Stage 1 tuned T4 S40 and it was brilliant.

[@weedmastersr]

As a V40 owner, I am delighted to finally see it on the channel, never thought I'd see the day and these cars are indeed huge bargains.

[@przemoa.1672]

More videos of this type guys! This is the right way!

[@HrBolzen]

Glad to see this beauty! V40 (in red, also Kombi) was the first car I've driven in my life and it was so nice 😍

[@vladimirchervenkov6949]

I’m so glad you guys are doing this video series! This car never gets any attention!

[@TheCvac]

My friend has the same volvo with 200 hp but just an S40 from this year. It wasn't serviced properly for years and kt still runs just fine,and it's pretty quick and shocks a lot of drivers on the road. Has about 340 000

[@spyder2001]

Very nice, i like this format. Cars on the continent seem expensive! I didnt catch the first video but in the UK you can get a decent car for £1600 which is just under 2kEur. For example there is currently: Jaguar S Type 4.2 V8 (300bhp) for £999 but there is ABS light on Jaguar S Type 3.0 V6 (240bhp) £1,395 BMW 745i (329bhp) £1,500 - no MOT so a bit of a gamble - but thats half the fun in this price bracket Volvo V70 T5 (260bhp) - £1,495 Ford Mondeo ST220 - £1,000 BMW 330d (204BHP) £1,000 BMW 330i (231BHP) £1,200 All do 0-60mph in less than 8 seconds and theres lots more. V40 T4 is a great bet though and i have always loved them. A sports / decat along with an air intake and a remap should see a good improvement in power and acceleration.

[@brayden_rb1216]

I love this. I have an s40 and it's awesome to see it on youtube

[@charliecharlie8621]

Best car channel on KZbin.

[@Wester1337]

Yes! I did not expect you guys to get a Volvo and I am so happy you did!

[@MrMarshy123456]

Personally have a T4 in the collection, phase 1.5 brilliant cars honestly performance bargain !

[@NathanSijpkes]

Bought one myself yesterday, this video reminded me of the good childhood and when 300nm was cool in 1998, more than most diesels back then.

[@vladisimo2164]

The 2 best car KZbinrs ever. Funny and likeable 👌

[@vincentbunk9405]

Have had a Volvo v40 t4, a silver one. Such a great car. I bought it 5 years ago for 1500 euros. Drove a whole year in it without any issues. Such great value for money. And like you said, no one knows about them. They have also been released as a Mitsubishi charisma. The engine is the same as the legendary 5 cilinders, but with 1 cilinder less. Leuke video! :D Groetnnn

[@Wester1337]

Ever since I saw Sarjana Jujur's v40 with Enkei nt03's (I believe), I have been in love with the v40. Such a nice car when done right!

[@ASDASD34RDFS]

If anyone is wondering what these types of car costs here in sweden where they exist in an abundance on the second hand market. A normal v40 from 2000 with 130hp driven by a grandmother for the last 20 years costs about 1000 euro. The same car with 163hp from 2000 costs around 1500 euro. So they got off really good with this one, especially since it's a t4.

[@alfredpalsson]

Lots of volvo content lately. Love it!

[@toregullikhanem3077]

Congratulations on a great project. A simple and straightforward respect for 320-330hp are: 19t turbo, H-rods, down pipe / race-cat, R-injectors and software. An lsd diff is also smart to have. Remember to start with Step 0!

[@rasmusbengtsson2787]

[@alperenaktas3760]

Such a lovely car, I have a 2001 s40 with only 1.6 liters engine. Runs smooth for most of the time but when it comes to change parts its hard and expensive. Volvo was way beyond their age when these were brand new on streets around 2000's.

[@streeatbeat]

Daaamn you shouldve gone the T5 route

[@jayman4095]

Not a bad deal at all, I myself driving 04 V40 that I got for $1,500 bucks with 53k on it all because it needed an oil pan replacement (previous owner hit a piece of wood on the highway and put a crack in it luckily they stopped driving it right after that happened and didn't run the engine dry), the previous owner didn't trust it after the damage has occurred. All I can say is it's the most reliable vehicle I own next to my beloved 91 4WS Prelude Si.

[@nripaa]

Keep up guys. More videos like this. Greetings from Switzerland

[@optidejyadubenko1165]

Volvo my favorite Brand ,thank you guys

[@abit9485]

My old S40 T4 used a lot of oil. Perhaps the Valve rings needed replacing. Great car for the money. Can keep up with golf GTI.

[@HPMvdBerg]

One of my friends had one like 15 years ago, and we went on a trip, it was about 5celcius so cold but not freezing. We set of and with 15km/u in the first corner, he understeered straight on into a sign. Slowest crash I've seen to date! Also hilarious to see. He was less pleased.

[@AutoTopnl]

The front axle is absolutely terrible 😂

[@Sentymentkok]

I ve been driving one for about 70k now, and had some issues with handling first, that got fixed with new tires and new springs. I drive it on the autobahn with 150-180 kmh, got the laguna diesel engine on it and get perfect mileage. My 2.4 s60 doesn't handle better. Volvos do tend to understeer overall, that s no surprise. Have some decent maintenance done and you ll see improvements, I'd expect.

[@dutchdna]

Makes total sense to check a car before doing an Autobahn run but when I was young, about 30 years ago, we would take ANY car and just floor it without checking ANYTHING at all. Never even thought about "safety". Times have changed.

[@iantownsend500]

You guys should both buy a car for €2000 & see who can get the highest top speed on the autobahn

[@DaleSteel]

Love these old buses.

I dare you to take this car to croatia during summer for vacation. Love the car finally something what most of us can afford. Much love and all the best for new year, hopefully its going to be nest year for all of us!

[@pabbeb4144]

I still drive a 2.0 europe from 2003 every day. it now has 368,000 km on the clock. the engine still runs like a charm and the bodywork is still as hard as stone. in mine, the headliner is also loose on a few points, but I just call that character. yes, it will remain in the family for a while. greetings from Groningen.

[@oskaripaukkunen7971]

90’s and 2000’s Volvos are super reliable and durable. And the engine sounds are great too, especially the T5 engine sound. Nearly as good as Audi’s older 5cyl engine sounds

[@unknownvinnumber]

You guys should actually buy a Saab 9-5 or 9-3 (of course with turbo), especially because you guys, or one of you, has childhood history with Saabs! Would be cool, and original!

I have this car but it was a sedan model. Make year 2003 auto transmission. All still in good condition. I like n love this car very much.

[@JorrisvdBerg]

With a bit of luck you can pick up an Fiat Grande Punto t-jet for €2000. 120hp doesn't sound like much but it has quite some torque. With a several cheap turbo options you can make around 200 hp on the stock engine reliably. Summary: 200Hp Turbo Hatchback with quite modern looks and good mileage for +- 3000 euro, does sound good right?

May 5th 2020 I picked up a BMW M135i E88 (convertible), in Southern California, with 53k miles (85K KM) for $8500 (7500 Euros). Car was salvage from last owner, but runs perfect, rides straight, and is the nicest smoothest car I have owned. What do you think? I think I got a great deal...in 2 years I have put about $1000 into repairs and maintenance.

I Had one in early 2000, very nice car and driving experience. I just now bought one of the nicest cars of the same era, Alfa Romeo 156 2.5 V6. That you could have also bought for 2000€. In my opinion Alfa is much better than the Volvo to drive, especially on twisty and winding roads.
