Description

The 2016 Volvo V40 R-Design D2 is a composed and efficient hatchback that balances refined everyday driving with sporty character. The diesel engine delivers strong economy and a relaxed cruising feel, while the responsive chassis and precise steering make urban manoeuvres and longer journeys enjoyable. The R-Design trim adds a purposeful look without sacrificing comfort.

Practicality is central to this V40 — a spacious boot, flexible 60/40 split rear seats and thoughtful cabin design make daily life easier. With a full service history, 12-month MOT on purchase and a six-month warranty included, it’s a sensible choice for buyers seeking reassurance alongside driving appeal.
