Default V40 D4 SE Manual

Had the above as a courtesy car from Lloyd Volvo when my V50 2.0d was in for a service.
Did about 140 miles in it.
Gearbox very nice, precise and easy to shift. My V50 was pretty vague since new.
Felt well screwed together.
Not sure but I felt the seats not as comfy as other Volvo seats. They may just need a bit of wear.
Engine was lovely (new D4) and the car could fairly shift.
According to the computer average was 51.5 mpg which was pretty good.
Not too sure that I liked the dashboard display buy I guess one would get used to it.
Compared to a BMW120D(183bhp?) I had a demo in the V40 was far nicer and felt much quicker.
