    re : looking at a v40 diesel - which one?

    Just about to come back on the Volvo ownership front,

    Which is the best V40 diesel to go for up to £1500 ish, not worried on mileage, but want a good one, low maintenance and reliable if every aspect, hopefully as good as my old T5 RICA.

    Also what should I look out for when going to buy one....

    Cheers in advance my Volvo Muchachos.....
