| Average. It's safe, well built and there are some good engines in the range. The estate has more to offer but there is more value to be found elsewhere until the new version arrives. |

| Straße Test |
| This model in saloon and estate form is due for replacement next year (2004) and to that end, it's getting a little long in the tooth - a situation made worse by so much fine competition from the likes of Alfa's 156. Safety and image are the main reasons you would buy the S or V40 as the drive itself is far from thrilling. Comfort-wise, space is at a premium and although Volvo offers probably the most comfortable seats in the world, this isn't a car you would wish to spend hours in. There are better deals to be had. |

- Mature estate promises safety and longevity
- Generously equipped and solidly built.
- Volvo estates don't go out of fashion quickly
|
| Negative Punkte |
- V50 makes it look dated
- High running costs on 2.0T and T4 models
- Less load space than other medium estates
