Volvo V40 Diesel

Bought this car in aug 2015. One of the last few batches of d2 version. Engine torque is amazing and i find myself driving in sport mode alot. Handles like a dream even for a front wheel drive car.

Feels made to last. i average about 18kml, a big difference from my old jap car (8kml). Fuel is also cheaper than bottled water. I top up full when its about 2/10. Costs me 38 +/- :D Overall the best engine for singapore imho.... Read More
