I was able to take an S40 2.0D SE away for unaccompanied test drive without any problems. In fact it was pretty much the first thing the salesman suggested. I picked it up on a hot, sunny saturday morning in May, and I didn't return it until mid-afternoon. I got the impression they'd have been happy for me to keep it for the whole day if I'd wanted. Much better than having a salesman wittering on to you as you drive around the block! |

Ive got the Focus ST with the fab volvo engine in there...I would have gone for the V50 but the wife wasn't overly keen.
Any way on our trip computer you have to reset the average mpg to get a true reading on a long journey and last time I was out on a good run I actually saw 45mpg but did go down to 42mpg, around town im getting around 24-27mpg. Also ive got the ST2 spec so have has standard the xenons, sony stereo with mp3(although changed to 6cd) and aux input. I also have the vis pack which includes auto lights and wipers. Darren I also heard the s40/v50 is based on the focus? unsure if this is true. |

The platform was developed jointly by Ford/Volvo/Mazda for use under the C30/S40/V50, Focus and Mazda 3.
