It's almost an ecomodder's dreamcar
I hope to get one as a replacement car while my V50 is looked at.
I thought that the DRIVe transmission was 5 speed, the difference being longer 3rd and 4th gears. I even looked through the window of an S40 DRIVe this morning and it had a 5sp. Maybe there are 6sp boxes for different models?
