Volvo manufactures safe and comfortable luxury vehicles, such as the XC40, the brand's best-selling model in the UK. Across the pond, Volvo is even more popular, resulting in numerous appearances in Hollywood films, from the V70 in World War Z to the 1972 Volvo 145 in Jobs. Back in the real world, the brand has led some important safety innovations in the automotive sector - notably with the invention of seat belts, which were first used in 1959. Volvo engineer Nils Bohlin gave the patent to the world in the name of safety, allowing other manufacturers to adopt the same system.

Introduced in 1995, the Volvo S40 progressed through two generations until it was discontinued in 2012. The first generation resulted from a collaboration with Mitsubishi, while the second shares a platform with the Ford Focus and has earned praise for its extensive safety features. It's an often-overlooked alternative to cars in the compact executive segment like the Audi A4. However, the S40's reliability isn't great. Drivers have reported issues with the ignition system, central locking, master cylinder and water and fuel pumps.
