Hello everybody! Before the presentation, I'm not really good speaking and writing english, but I'll do my best

I present myself : I'm Jean-Christophe, I'm 24 and, like said in the subject, I'm from Switzerland, near the city of Lausanne.

I didn't own any Volvo since now, but I've just ordered a beautiful V40 R-Design T4! I expect to get it on December, but really hope it comes before!! The waiting is so long!

So, here it is, that's a little part of me

Jicer. That's great, welcome to the forum, what colour have you chosen?

 

[GusGecko]

Welcome!

 

[jimrask]

Welcome!
Must be the first R-Design here, no?

 

[Andytech]

Welcome Jicer!

Hi Jicer!

Excellent choice! I've ordered the T4 as well but r-design was not available at the time I ordered... It's a great car! I did an extensive test drive on Saturday and can't wait for mine to arrive

 

[Jicer]

@London_2012 :
I choose it in Ice White

@jimrask :
I didn't see anyone speaking about ordering a R-Design, so yes maybe I'm the first here

@volver :
Oh that's not fair... but great to here that! I also think it's great engine! I'm really excited to get mine!

 

[GusGecko]

Yep 1st R Design... Good choice sir, that will be one **** of a car. Any extra goodies on it?

 

[Jicer]

Yes, some little extra goodies like :
- Dual Xenon
- High Performance Audio (with 5" screen)
- Interior light pack
- Rear detector and back camera
- front seat that becomes warm ^^ (don't know how to say that in english ... )

And later I will certainly upgrade ECU (Rica or Heico...) and I'm also thinking about a styling pack...

Welcome to the forum! Tasteful spec.

- front seat that becomes warm ^^ (don't know how to say that in english ... )

"heated seats"

 

[GusGecko]

I love this... I might have to use that from now on 'seats that become warm'

Sounds good, ecu upgrade sounds like a good idea ;-)

 

[Patrickv]

Sounds like an amazing car..
You'll like the T4 engine
I am also working on my ecu upgrade but taking a bit longer due to early release software on my car...

Hi Patrick!

Please keep us posted on your upgrade! I've also ordered the T4 and I will definitelly tune it but I am not sure where yet (rica, heico, etc.). I believe we can get far more than 20hp that rica is reporting on their website.

I am working with MTE to get the upgrade done. Check out the increase some of the Ford Focus ecoboost owners are reporting.. (As that is the same engine)... Seen mentions of a good 215 bhp and 350nm torque

Wow! It sounds really great! I'm looking forward to hear more about this uprade


And thanks for the "heated seats"
