1999 Volvo S40 S review from Jersey
"A superb, reliable, thoroughly comfortable and fine looking car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only thing I've noticed so far is the light for the A/C button; very minor and I'm not bothered by it.
General comments?
I could not be more pleased with it. It's everything I've ever wanted in a car, particularly the in-car entertainment. It's a joy to drive - power steering and the reversing sensor make parking far easier than the Fiesta. All in all, I am delighted with it. I only wish Jersey had a higher speed limit, so I could really test it!
