Default First Volvo, 2005 S40 T5

So I had barely considered Volvo in my search for a used sports sedan, I was mostly looking at BMW 3-series. I came across a 2005 S40 on a local Volvo dealer's website with only 3600 miles on it... I thought it was a mistake so I called, and they informed me it was accurate.

Long story short, I took it for a test drive, loved it, and bought it for about $5000 less than I was looking to spend. It was impounded by the federal government in 2006 as part of an investigation, and it spent 4 years in heated storage... that's all I know. But the car is mint - not a scratch, scuff, or stain anywhere. And I LOVE it.

So, I'm just saying hello!

Welcome to VF. I love your S40. Looks like the little brother to my old S60R.
