2002 Volvo V40 review from North America
"Good performance and worth the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Signal connector on instrument panel came loose and spammed odometer. Dealer provided warranty service and loaner while locking connector properly.
General comments?
We purchased factory delivery and enjoyed driving it for one month in Europe before bringing it to USA.
Great acceleration, good fuel economy and fast steering response. Seats are Volvo-comfortable. Radio/CD provides beautiful sound. Well appointed with optional leather seats.
Warms up quickly in frigid weather and handles well on snow and ice.
