assuming they are both diesel....the manual '04 plate is likely to be 163bhp, but the auto '06 could be a 163 or 185bhp. You can tell under the bonnet - the 185 has a grey cover, the 163 black. Plus the 185bhp has a 6 speed geartronic box, whereas i (think) the 163 had 5 speed.

We've got a small auto for local use and wouldn't want to use a manual for local work, the Volvos are used for long trips so manual for economy. Your driving style will inform your choice.
