Thumbs up praise for my 440

my 440 1.8 si just passed its m.o.t. again only needed to adjust the handbrake mechanism, some corrosion reported on a rear brake pipe in front of fuel tank! had the car six years now, 95,000 miles seems likely to go on for at least another six. Quality!!!

Funny I thought the 700/900 would have been more popular than the 850 group.

Hello,

I own a V50. I wanted an 850 but couldn't find one that was in good enough nick, then found a great 940 which I was going to buy until
I saw it being mullered by a Renault modus on a clip of a crash test from fifth gear so I plumped for the cheapest V50 I could get that looked the part - a 2.4i SE and I love it, though I've spent four figures on servicing and rectifying faults. It's great to drive and has a five star euro ncap rating :0)

2004 S60 D5 (163) Sport for me.

I've only had it a month and a half but I'm already smitten; I absolutely love it!

Oh, and I'm late 30's and slightly 'beardy' but only because I can't be arsed with shaving
