This car is amazing. It's amazingly spacious for being a smaller car. I'm 6'7" and I sit as well in this S40 as I do in some mid to large size vehicles. The turbo in this car makes it one of the fastest cars in its class. Volvo always have the most comfortable seats, a big plus for anyone who likes to drive so you don't have to stop every so often to rest your bum. The whole point is to drive for as long as the tank takes you.

Pros: Really price worthy, very fast, terrific handling, comfortable seats, great design.
Cons: When fully using the turbo, a lot of power is pushed on the front wheel drive, which makes the front slightly unstable in hard accerleration. Not much space in the back seat.

It's easy to handle, very well built, not enough leg room in the back when I drive,hand brake leaver could have been under the dashboard. boot aperture coulh have been a bit bigger, a sixth gear would be good. Overall:NOT BAD

Pros: Side impact protection & Air bags
Cons: Boot aperture

This car zips around traffic with ease. Build quality is the greatest from super stiff body shaft. Performance is incredible. Gets you from point A to point B in less time than predicted. Great gas mileage. Fun to drive? YES!

Pros: All
Cons: None

Nice car, love it being a manual. Wish it were a little faster, but gets really good gas mileage. I have had it a year and very little complaints. I think its looks sexy and I'm hoping to get some rims for it and dress it up a little bit.

Pros: Looks sexy
Cons: kinda slow...

Driving a volvo is like a sunday afternoon in front of
the TV, the kind of sunday afternoon that follows
roast beef and yorkshire puddings.... Probably
watching something with Julie andrews in it...... The
best thing about my volvo is that its absolutely fab...
Without a doubt offering the best drive......

Pros: Its a volvo
Cons: Nothing

I've had the car since new, its fun to drive but it understeers too much. I hope to correct that with a thicker rear stabilizer bar. Power is very good & engine likes to rev. Fuel economy is good too.

Pros: i work at volvo
Cons: i work at volvo
