Just ordered a new S40 SE Lux Premium, which should arrive beginning of Sept.
I must admit to being a little hesitant in ordering due to the uncertainty of the the S40s remaining lifespan e.g. S40 being phased out in-light of the new S60 and current C30. Dealer was unaware of any phasing out of the S40.
I have, however, just come across this news release from Volvo Malaysia, where they have stated the "launch of an all-new Volvo S40 by the end of this year"

Anyone else caught any snippets of an all-new S40? If this turns out to be true I'll be pretty p**sed off having just ordered a new car that will be immediately old with a rock sinking residual value...
