The VOLVO S40 (2007-10) 4DR SALOON 1.8F 125 SPORT is a four-door saloon, offering a discreet alternative to the hatchbacks and small executive cars common on UK roads. Volvo’s reputation for safety and an understated cabin gives it a grown-up feel without the size or expense of a larger saloon. This 1.8-litre, 125bhp Sport is suited to commuting, everyday errands and family duties, for buyers who value comfort and a composed drive over sporty sharpness. The 1.8F badge identifies a flexifuel version, designed to use petrol or bioethanol; availability and running costs depend on fuel access and the car’s condition.
