V40 Cross Country T5 AWD

[Gad-Westy]

Anybody had or know much about these.

Model we're looking at is the earlier 2.5 engine. I assume these cars are pretty rare. Very little info around on them.

I'm not expecting a razor sharp drive or great economy but are these pretty dependable and commfortable?

Looking for a car for the Mrs (and me) and though there are many, many options, an AWD drive petrol engined car this sort of size does tick quite a few boxes.

Any major short comings, things to check etc? Are these engines chain or belt?

IIRC only Auto available, will be the 5 cylinder Ford Focus ST shared engine, Will be solid, not that roomy

Cheers. Trying to find some more info. Will get into internet detective mode.

If you don't want something look at Subaru SV

Or maybe more like the V40 CC would be Infinity QX30
