In 2000 Volvo updated the 40 Series ("Phase II"), implementing a number of technical improvements, e.g., improved engine management, direct (diesel) fuel injection, extra safety features, larger brake discs, new front suspension and steering, revised rear suspension, larger tyres and a widening of the track width. A minor facelift gave larger headlights, more streamlining and larger rear light clusters as well as minor instruments and fascia re-design.
The V40 was named the 'Most Beautiful Estate Car in the World' at an Italian award ceremony.

I bought my V40 new at the end of 2000, and it's still going strong - and strong is the word. Now done 151k miles, no appreciable engine wear, original clutch, gearbox etc. I have had to replace the usual parts as they wore out - shocks, brakes discs and calipers etc - and I have had it serviced by the book by a specialist, but it has been very good value for money so far. I paid £23k for a fully loaded car with all the toys in Holland, and imported it to UK, getting what would have been a £32k UK priced car for £9k less. I expect to get another 10 years or so out of it, which means I will have spent roughly £1k per year to fly around in a lovely car with a high spec. I doubt very much whether you would find another car which would offer the same at this price. If anyone else out there thinks like I do - buy them new/nearly new, then run them into the ground - Volvo is a very good way to go. I have driven a lot of hire cars for work over the years, all new or nearly new, and it is always a relief to get out of them and back into my 11 year old V40 as it feels so sharp and responsive by comparison. Excellent car.

This car was sold by myself to the last owners 4 years ago, who apart from its regular services and general maintenance have had 4 trouble free years of motoring and have reluctanly sold it back to me as they are returning to the UK. Medium size economical automatic estate cars are not easy to find in Spain, so book a test drive today to avoid disappointment.
