I've got one for 4 days last week to go on a training course with and i wasn't over impressed with it, it wasn't that bad to drive but i found the 6 speed box annoying i seemed to be forever changing gear all time.

Saying that it was better than a new shape s40 i had a few months back to go on a traing course with, its a 120 mile trip and i had backache by the time i got there, not sure why cos the only differance was the v50 had leather interior and s40 didn't.

Power wise i found it quiet livly for a diesel and it managed 120 before it started to run out of steam and after 500mile it was doing around 42mpg.
