  Still Kicking - 2001 Volvo V40
  By Brian - October 30 - 2:16 pm

  I just turned over 200,000 kms and the V40 is still performing deciently. Noticeable interior creaks and squeaks recently but nothing the stock sound system can handle. My V40 is my office and it still handles great. My only complaint is the cost of servicing this vehicle. Without doubt the most expensive car I have ever owned for regular maintenance. Beware.

  From Texas - 2001 Volvo V40
  By used v40 - April 11 - 2:00 am

  USED 2001 V40 with 41580 miles to start. The looks are showroom quality. It has a loud deep bass hum the VOLVO tech said "thats how it sounds." I drove from TEXAS to NYC. 1800 miles in 2 days thats 30 hours not incld stops for food, the toilet and gas. No problem for me, but the car? The V40 great. Smooth ride on the freeway, sport like on the city interchanges and streets. Stopped 7 times, 55 gallons of gas and actually drove 1900.2 miles. I avg 70 mph and 34.6 mpg, not bad for any car. I am not the "a button for eveything" type. The interior is plain, many of the "buttons" are muti-functional. The trunk is spacious for a compact wagon.

  Update of prior review - 2001 Volvo V40
  By woobie - July 11 - 10:00 am

  Has been in service department four times since it was purchased last year. The last service took over four weeks to complete. The fit and finish is sorely lacking with this car. A/C stinks and trim pieces fade/degrade quickly.

  Very happy - 2001 Volvo V40
  By Claude - June 14 - 6:10 pm

  When the price of gas when up crazy, I decided to trade my Nissan pathfinder. With two young kids 2 and 4 i needed some space! For the price of my Pathfnider LE 2000 I found this Volvo V40 2001... I just love it, With full leather interior, good space, great performance, I really dont miss my pathfinder. I just fell in love with Volvo. I would recommand this car to anyone. Reliability... only have the car for 4 months... So far So good

  Still love it after a year - 2001 Volvo V40
  By jfalley - November 27 - 2:00 am

  I am single, travel (for fun) alot and love this wagon. I have 2 dogs, and there is plenty of room for the standard fair for one person. 2 people with all the equipment to snowboard gets full but still has rear vision through the vehicle, have done 3 people and I dont recomend it, the back seat is tight (real tight)if the front is set for the comfort of a 6 foot tall person. Rear seat is for kids only, but that is how you get the good milage, perfect for me.

  Nice lil wagon - 2001 Volvo V40
  By drivetotheend - September 8 - 3:00 pm

  Bought with 58,000, now at 74,000. Nothing beyond the 60K service and oil changes. Paint is worst feature. Added mud flaps and euro-rails for a little character and sport exhaust, K&N filter, Bilstein gas shocks and a heavier sway bar for fun. Very responsive, very quick, very nice. As noted on these, the brakes will need replacing after about 20K, but it still stops well (they were new at purchase). Overall, this is a great vehicle. Yakima box onto the rails and I can fit all I need to camp with my wife and two small children. Once they get a little older, the back seat will be too small; its tight back there!
