Comments from the seller
Probably the hardest Volvo model to find for sale in Australia! This one has every conceivable option, with the bullet-proof 5 cylinder turbo petrol engine, producing 169kW and 320Nm in a compact sedan. I searched Australia wide to find this one. Black duco, with unmarked black leather trim, optional electric glass sunroof, RTIS (Road Traffic Information System - pop up GPS), and the legendary Volvo safety systems: SIPS (Side Impact Protection System), WIPS (Whiplash Impact Protection System), BLIS (Blindspot Impact Protection System), EBD (electric brake force distribution), ABS and 6 airbags. You don’t want to have an accident - but if you do, you’d want to be in a Volvo!
Also features optional 17 inch alloys on Goodyear tyres, 5 speed semi-automatic gearbox with manual shift sports mode, contrasting wood trim, cruise control, premium stereo with 6 in-dash CD player and audio inputs, Bluetooth connectivity, heated seats, electric drivers seat, child booster seats, fold down rear seats for additional cargo space, parking sensors, driving lights (spotlights), R-Design pedals, mirror covers and optional sunglasses holder.
Three mature aged owners from new, with mostly country kilometres travelled, it drives like a new! Fully documented service history and manuals, 2 keys, dark window tint, plus a brand new battery and K&N air filter. Will come with registration until August 2026 and recently passed a RWC with flying colours for sale purposes although now expired. Last service May 2016 so nothing to do for the foreseeable future - cam belt changed in 11/2018 at 151klms (so not due until 300klms or 11/28). Much rarer and more practical than the similarly engined C30 T5 coupe, but with 4 doors.
The engine and chassis are shared with the Ford Focus XR5 turbo, and if you check the prices of the Focus, you’ll see this model is much rarer and far better value. Volvos are renowned for quality fit & finish, safety, reliability and longevity. Genuine reason for sale by 64 Y/O owner - bought another Volvo. View/test drive in St Kilda VIC.

Overview
There's been a rationalisation of the S40 with 2.5T power and five-speed auto range-wide. While it shares the same four-year-old platform as Ford's Focus and the Mazda 3, it still holds up well stylistically and dynamically. The interior is well thought out, uncluttered, inviting and distinctly Volvo. High safety equipment levels include ABS, eight airbags, stability/traction control, electronic brake force distribution and front pre-tensioning seat belts. Newly added are dedicated daylight running lights and Emergency Brake Light (EBL) system which strobes the brake lights under severe braking. A new wealth of options includes a blind spot warning system (BLIS).
