Rightly or Wrongly the New V40 is aimed at people who are new to the Volvo brand. I think I’ve only sold 1 so far to an existing Volvo customer, and that was replacing an older V70 as they didn't need anything as big any more and wanted 5 doors.

The V40 is expensive when compared to a C30, but not particularly when compared with an A3/A-Class/1-Series, so guess that’s why we're selling a lot of them to people outside of the Volvo Brand......just my view from the ground floor, but kind of ties in with peoples views on here by the sounds of things?

Also the 0% finance and service pack is helping a lot on V40 and is something which I don’t believe the competition is offering on similar vehicles..think Merc are doing 4.9% finance as an example.....
