2003 Volvo V40 review from North America
"We love this car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When we first drove the car off the lot, the check engine light came on. Replaced a thermostat in the car and that fixed it.
General comments?
Car has great pickup for a 4 cylinder engine.
Good fuel economy and handling.
Small interior if you're used to American autos, but very comfortable.
Peculiar radio preset knob, but a great sound system.
Handles well, and all interior components function well.
