VOLVO S40 (2007-10) 4DR SALOON 2.4 D5 180 SE
Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The VOLVO S40 (2007-10) 4DR SALOON 2.4 D5 180 SE is a compact four-door saloon, an alternative to family hatchbacks. In the UK used market it occupies the small premium-car niche, with Volvo’s understated style, a comfortable cabin and generous boot. It suits family duties and longer work journeys.
The 2.4-litre D5 diesel gives this S40 strong performance for relaxed motorway travel, while the SE trim brings a well-equipped feel. Mycarcheck.com records 13 look-ups covering seven distinct VINs, a modest sample. Those checks show average recorded mileage of 110,000 and annual use of 5,000 miles.
The average private-sale valuation in the checks is £1,800, with four previous keepers on average; these figures describe vehicles checked, not every S40. Against Audi A4 and BMW 3 Series saloons, it offers a less showy, comfort-focused choice with Volvo’s safety-minded reputation. It suits commuting and family use, but check its history and condition carefully.
Before buying a Volvo S40, check for outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, hidden damage, mileage discrepancies or theft. Enter the reg now—skipping the check could cost you.
