Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
- You prefer a higher seating position: this SUV/crossover type may suit. Try getting in and out; the body shape alone does not prove extra seats or four-wheel drive.
- You would prefer less gear changing in traffic: the recorded automatic transmission may suit. Try how this exact gearbox behaves on a test drive.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
The 2020 XC40 diesel uses modern emissions kit (DPF, EGR and many examples use AdBlue/SCR) so short, stop-start ownership can cause soot build-up and higher servicing. The automatic gearbox is generally robust but check for documented fluid/service intervals and any hesitation on kickdown — dealer or main-dealer records are a plus.
- DPF condition — ask whether the car has had regular long runs or forced regenerations and check for recent DPF-related fault codes.
- AdBlue filler, dosing system and consumption (some diesels have an external filler or warning history).
- Automatic gearbox behaviour and service history (smooth shifts, no slipping, any fluid-change records).
- Turbocharger/intercooler leaks and smoke on hard acceleration (signs of oil leaks or excessive smoke).
