€2000 Car Challenge | 1999 Volvo V40 T4 | REVIEW on AUTOBAHN by AutoTopNL

[@TekkenBones]

Guys im telling you now....get yourself an older Volvo. They are the some of the most underrated cars on the road. And let me tell you this... those SEATS man....When you finish a hard day of solid manual work and your body is aching... and you FINALLY reach the parking lot and get into your Volvo, those seats CRADLE your spine in such a satisfyingly supportive way, you could almost fall asleep in them. That alone sets them apart from most other vehicles.... The seats really do feel like your favourite armchair.

My girl has pretty bad back problems....only car she is comfortable in is our V70' 98

Volvo cars are literally great! Comfort, safety and performance!

[@xydexter]

Had an S40 T40 '98.Surprised many 3-5 times more expensive cars. It performs best on 98+ octane. Totaled it at 120 km/h on the highway when a moron decided to switch lanes without using his mirrors, I got out without a scratch.

not even a flesh wound? :)

[@xydexter]

@@RhinoTheHamster400, nope. :)

[@Sniepje]

Glad you were okay

[@fnnpc746]

Volvo... When I had my 740 I've never felt more safe. I once saw a BMW crash in a V70 here in Sweden on the highway. The BMW was metal scrap and the Volvo looked brand new altough the bmw was still on the road and the Volvo was in the ditch. We swedes know how to build safe cars.

[@xydexter]

@@fnnpc746, that's why now I drive another Volvo. :)

[@John-vf4yw]

Love this cars. I own one right now, but a V40 2,0t -01. Runs like a dream. I owned 6-7 of these and phase 2 (2001-2004) with vvt is even more faster but the pistons in phase 2 is much weaker. Easy car to maintaine/repair, i do it all myself like the timing belt etc. Best v40 i owned was a 2,0t -99 with stage 4 (240-260hp). It was a monster :D A chip to the t4 is pretty cheap, like 300 euros. You then get like 235hp. Pretty funny. I can talk about this cars for hours and i appreciate the time and love you give them :)

I daily a 2010 Volvo V50 1.6D drive E (MTX75/5 speed manual), believe it or not that thing weighs around 1.3 tons, it’s pretty fuel efficient, averages somewhere between 4.2 to 4.8 liters per 100 kms and by that I mean that I have actually managed to get a average of 4.2 liter per 100 kms, mixed driving to work and home, through Gothenburg traffic in Swedish winter with studded winter tires on. But generally it likes to sit at around 4.5 liter per 100 kms. The little thing runs so efficiently and saved me so much money that I was able to buy my second car, 2001 S60 2.4T (M56/5 speed manual) got it for a great price, bought it all alone by myself on my birthday actually, we didn’t celebrate my birthday on the day that year, since my sister was hospitalized, she was in and out of hospital for a few years. But really quite like my S60. Kept up with a Porsche Macan S surprisingly well with its at the time stock 200hk and 285Nm vs the Macan S 340HK, the Porsche used Launch control, it was in the wet, FWD vs AWD, manual vs Porsche PDK. It currently has a BSR stage 1 tune bumping up the stock power to 250 instead of the stock 200 and the torque was bumped up to 410Nm instead of the stock 285, so it should be able to embarrass most E46 3 series (except the M3 off course).

[@steven3726jw]

I recently bought the 07 s80 v8 and it’s lovely, I’ve also had an 05 s60 R and 05 V70 R and a 2006 s80 2.5t. I have never been amazed by a car like these volvos man

[@einfacharthur]

more of this. we need E39, Audi A2, W124, 190E, Audi 100

[@karolinska1601]

I got a 1999 S40 T4, I did 260 km/h with it. Love that car. Only payed €750 for it, too.

[@christiana75]

I also just got an Volvo V40 T4 from 1997 but with automatic transmission, looking forword to drive it when i replaced the engine.. You gotta love these old Volvo's 😄😄

[@MrBlkburn]

I own a 2003 S40 1.8 Europa and it has 122hp. Apart of some rattling in the passenger door the car is a tank! It has 190k km, I have it from 2017 and done nothing to it except consumables. LOVE IT!!

[@jessehofsteenge4733]

Wow, our cars are basically twins! I got a 2004 Atlantic blue s40, also around 190k kms. Love it, one of the prettier cars around imo

[@MrBlkburn]

@@jessehofsteenge4733 Atlantic Blue as well with beige interior (not even a crack)! Put some black headlights as soon as I bought it! It's gorgeous!! And the retracting antenna still works every time :)) They don't do them like this anymore sadly.

[@mangewide]

Love it!, had one T4 for 20 years ago!. Still remember it as very fun car! .Regards from Sweden ;)

[@mcw280]

This video made me laugh .Buying a car for €2000 is not a challenge . Its what most ordinary people have.

[@Mr13147]

it actually weighs 1300, but thats still verry impressive wow. my 200 hp v70 from 2000 weighs1560! also very enjoyed the video Martin. U got me smiling alot:)

My father to have a v40 2.0 and had it for 13 years or something without any problems. For the last 6 years he‘s having one of the last 5 cylinder Diesel v60. Also a great car if you ask me though I’m still a newbie to driving…

[@gidoras]

I like this car I have a volvo v40 1855 CC turbo for 20 years and love this car very very mach.

[@oskaripaukkunen7971]

I think that colour is swedish racing green

[@TekkenBones]

The reason this engine is 1.9-litre displacement is because Volvo could not fit the 5 cylinder "T5" engine into this car... so they remove a cylinder from T5 engine so it will fit. If you observe at 4:28...notice how the oil filler cap is NOT centered. It lines up with intake port 3 lol. It's off-center because Volvo didnt re-design that part...instead they cover up the 'surgery' with the plastic "16 Valve Turbo" cover lol, but if you look underneath the cover, it literally looks like someone forgot to add cylinder no.5.

[@Frequency-ct4sf]

Exactly. The similarities are astounding to the 5 cyl. V70 from that time.

[@toregullikhanem3077]

An 18t or a 19t bolt on Mitsubishi turbo, K1 rods and a down pipe w/racecat. 👍🏼

I have a T5 .. still not bad for T4. Volvo for life.

had a v70 t5 until last month i got me a v60 t6 :3. volvo for life, fine you said.

[@hwb-zalpach]

i have a 1999 passat variant 4wd v6 2.8l. 30 valve. fantastic machine in all aspects, except gas mileage.. paid about 3000 euros for it last year.

[@Frequency-ct4sf]

I used to own a Volvo 440 1.7 turbo.....that was heaps of fun.

[@lucaishsk4619]

Bro Volvo i rembemer when i was 12 my dad had the 850 T 5 every year ehen we was driving to Udine this sound and Turbo leckkk.. amazing 220km/h behind ah e 535i . Now he has the 2012 V60 T6 and the V50 T5 stage 1. I love my dad Volvo power so Cooo 🙌🔥

[@TheSemismoker]

I had an T4 back in 2002. Excellent car for the time, but it had one issue i didnt like at all. The engine would go way too hot way too fast if pressured abit. Watch out for that boys

[@danieleriksson1657]

I had a V40 2.0T year 2000 that I changed the chip on ( Autotech Motor Trollhättan AB made the job ), putting a 3.5" downpipe on it plus T4 turbo making 255HP and it made 260km/hour. I miss that car very much seeing this video :)

[@bartjongedijk3791]

You should check the tcv (turbo control valve), When they wear out the boost is around 0.4 bar instead of the 0.9 it should do.

[@DashCamSerbia]

Waiting for that dyno run, and remap. :D

[@thirdlawofmotion]

The 2.0T that replaced the 1.9T was only 163 BHP. Smaller turbo I believe.

[@temedzu]

163hp 2.0t was the low pressure version. T4 still had the same output.

[@TekkenBones]

Both "1.9T" and "1.9 T4" increased displacement to 2.0-litres in later cars.

[@temedzu]

@@TekkenBones And power for t4 didn't change. That's what I meant with my comment. Even torque remained the same but with a wider rpm band.

[@krzysiek0123100]

Very fast up to 160km/h. Impressive.

[@TheDanixx]

I had a V40 2.0T 2000. Just for fun i took the hose for the wastegate out so the turbo boosted as much as it could. Bot to recommend. I also had a V40 T4 a short while. I both miss them and dont miss them. I want a 850 R cause its a more good looking car

[@Frequency-ct4sf]

A buddy of mine had this one a while ago, (sedan version) It is a bit cheap on the inside. If you wan't a fast little bugger though....buy this

[@Sodasoloman]

Just got a V40 2.0T but it needs a ton of work the coilovers are coming in next week (suspension is shot) new breaks, breaklines handbrake cable and the turbo lines need replacing and this use to belong to a mecanic but im not giving it up 🤘

[@andabossftw]

Is the 1st gen volvo s80 reliable?

[@Frequency-ct4sf]

i fecking love this car allready. Cheers

[@marcustaylor6395]

Hi Max, What are the detailsbof this shop who bought the parts inventory from the nedcar factory?

[@serdarmutlu8716]

Although it is highly cheap for people that live in countries that belong to european unions, this car is not affordable for lots of people that live in Turkey because our currency is not valuable so we undergo some difficulties in order to get somethings like car. Finally even if somethings seem to cheap for somebodies, somethings may be too expensive for someones. :)

[@joramk1449]

This guy is from the Netherlands. €2000 is not that much money. A decent secondhand car is 5000-9000€. €2000 is (half) a month salary.
