2001 Volvo S40 T4 SE review from UK and Ireland
"Understated Motorway blaster- Luxury Wolf in Swedish Sheep clothing"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing whatsoever, problem free driving driving for 6 months & 5500 miles.
General comments?
Fabulous car if you want an understated low key motorway blaster, many an embarrassed & red faced BMW, Audi & Alfa Romeo driver left wondering what on earth just hit them at the traffic lights. Stunningly fast.
Comfort & practicality - great. Deep leather seats all the SE spec to be expected.
Easy & light to drive.
A real motorway distance runner- perfect motorway blaster.
