Agreed that the 850s were the business in as far as robustness and build quality was concerned. Had an '05 S40 2.4i and loved it. Bulletproof in general, and very easy and cheap to work on. Mine had 240000km/150000mi on it when it was killed in a collision and I'm sure it still had double that left in it. Beware that the 2.4i motor sits very low in the car, so you may end up going through sumps at quite a rate depending on the quality of the roads where you are. A very easy and not too expensive repair though.
