In the following opinion I am going to give a full description of the Volvo S40 1.6. Because this is the car that I drive I can tell you everything. When I first got in I thought, what a comfortable car this is, I tuned the radio, put it up full blast and drove. The tank was full with petrol, I got as far as fleet and discovered that the petrol needed refilling. It had very effective power steering, brilliant air conditioning and a very effective CD player. The seats were very comfortable and it gave it a very smooth ride. There were, as usual Some typical Volvo faults though. Because the Volvo is a Swiss car every thing apart from the steering wheel and dashboard were the wrong side, the hand brake was closer to the passenger seat than the drivers seat. The mirror in the sun shield was above the driver and not the passenger, and of course there was the typical Volvo fault that the lights were constantly on. This did not really effect my Volvo driving experience though. When I tried to get my suitcases in the boot, I found that there was a lip which made it rather difficult to get my luggage in. It didn’t help that much that I have rather a large suitcase. When I finally got to Suffolk I looked back on my journey and thought that my old Ford Anglia would probably not have made it and decided that I had quite enjoyed my Volvo driving experience.
