1998 Volvo V40 T4 review from Australia and New Zealand
"Underated and not appreciated in Australia (pity)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Door stay snapped, Clunking noise from suspension when cold, loose hose to intercooler, a few annoying buzzes from the dash.
General comments?
Generally happy with car but find the ride a little too firm/unrefined compared with my wife's Audi A4. Would really be perfect if offered as decent 4wd drive (like Audi Quattro,Subaru WRX).
