Volvo S40

I have owned my S40 since February and it has been a good car. It is a Sept 2000 model and with relative low mileage (60K) when purchased. It is comfortable, spacious and has great road presence. The 1.6 engine is good even though you do have to drop it a gear to go up hills if the revs are not over 2000. My husband wanted me in a big safe car and this fits the bill. The car is great as I am 5'2" and can reach the pedals easily and my husband is 6'3" and is always comfortable in the passenger seat. If you require a strong family car, I would definately choose this one.
