2001 Volvo V40 Sport lux review from UK and Ireland
"Its great, go buy one!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with the car except the air-con had to be re-gassed.
General comments?
I bought this car from a friend, and have not looked back. It runs like a dream, and the sport trim makes it in my opinion the best looking car on the road.
It is very fast with its 1.8i engine, and I get about 30 miles per gallon.
Its not the most exciting car I have ever driven, but it is probably the safest.
The only thing I don't like about it is the running costs. The servicing and parts are not cheap, but because it's such a solid car I'll forgive it for being a little thirsty.
