Volvo V40 Estate (1996-2004) boot space, practicality and safety
Looking for a different model?
(change model)
A four-star Euro NCAP rating is very good for a car of this age. All cars have ABS, seat belt pre-tensioners, driver’s airbag and Volvo’s SIPS side airbag system. Deadlocks are fitted to all but the early base-model cars (where they are an option combined with central locking).
V40 manages to mix style and substance – in the shape of a useable load area. It’s just the job for weekend trips to DIY stores, the dump and it has a big enough luggage area for short holidays. Not really practical for heavy-duty work, but perfect as a family holdall. Good sized glovebox and a few little cubbies, too.
