    I'm a Traitor!!

    Well after having the Passat for 7 yrs and wife has had her A class for 12 years decided time for new wheels.. Looked at new Merc A and Audi A3 but they all got canned for various reasons and I wanted something with conventional auto. Her mum has always had Volvos and swears by them so ended up at Volvo dealer.. They were doing good deals on the V40 T5 R design with no GST so we did the deal, Love the five cylinder engine. here is a crappy phone pic just need the bloody Volvo driver sticker.

    I rate the V40 and a change is always important when upgrading car in my opinion. I get it, those 5 cylinders pick up a LOT of torx tuned.

    Volvo have some big things happening, I've always liked the brand (treats like P1800, Amazon, 850R, 480GT) I hope they're performance stuff gets picked up, the things id do for a manual Polestar wagon. Nice car and good choice I think.
