I have had a V40 2.0T for about 4 years and I love it, even though it's causing problems (at 140,000 miles).

The extras are nice (climate control, heated seats and computer are the ones I like) but cost a lot on a new vehicle for what they are. I got mine second hand with 10,000 on the clock at about 50% of the new price including extras.
