1999 Volvo V40 xi review from UK and Ireland
"Good value for money second hand buy, enjoyable drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have just had cam belt service and mot
just needed 2 front tyres both evenly worn.
General comments?
Have driven a lot of similar sized cars through work eg. mondeo, vectra,406 this car is without doubt a far better driving experiance, comfortable, reliable, well equipped and £4995 well spent.
If driven hard can be costly on fuel, but add an extra 100 miles per tank with sedate driving.
The 2.0t engine delivers when needed.
But it it is not a sports chassis,as a sports tourer it's a great all rounder.
6 years old and everything works.
