Saloon - Front (FWD) - 5 Speed Manual Gearbox - 1798 cc - Max Speed: 124 mph - 125 bhp - Petrol - Available Trims: Sport, SE Sport, SE, S, R-DESIGN Sport
Advantages: Low Price for Premium Badge, Styling, Build Quality, Handling Disadvantages: Lack of cubby space, Boot too shallow
, the front door pockets are very very small, I can just about fit in my PDA and that's it. The glovebox, though deep is yet again too small and the boot is shallow though quite deep.

I went for a VolvoS40, Volvo have always had the reputation of strong well built reliable cars and in the past ten years have been up their competing with the likes of luxry marques like BMW and Mercedes.

PRICE
---------
We bought the car used at £7995, a bargain considering that brand new this particular model (the 1.8i) was over £17,000.
