Volvo V40 Hatchback (2012 - 2019) D3 (4 Cyl 150bhp) Inscription 5d Owner Review

very comfatable high speed cruiser a little skitish on poor surfaced b roads and round town especialy in wet when traction and stability control brake one wheel then the other under even slightly aggresive acceleration went for inscription in basic form with lots of usable goodies without the pretenous extras which there are many available . the car feels slightly remote ie steering feed back & ride test drove a d4 with 190 bhp but found it more skitish could not justify extra cost to buy a badge when extra power not usable except in straight line more enough power and torque for lively driving in 150 hp model car needs to be kept on 1500 rpm sweet spot to make good progress and fuel economy round town and speeds up to 40 as for reliability only owned for 1 month / 1000 miles so no problems all feels very ,sounds ,looks very well nailed together so if your looking for some thing a little different from the sheep following german stuff try one out in d3 inscription on 17" wheels a couple of years old you might be suprised what you can get for your money
