Hmm how can I say this without bashing them.....
I wouldnt touch the old style, 2004 and below. the 2004.5 and up arent too bad. the T5 6mt AWD is a blast to drive. I have not had any seat time with the c30 yet. you are correct they are basically the same as an S40.
Up untill about late 2006 they have some wiring issues in the door harness. corrosion on the terminal causing window and locking issues. The have alot of software corrections for radio/climate control/ network etc. The bugs are pretty much worked out at this point.
I have not replaced one engine or tranny in a 2004.5- S40. I have seen other techs do them but from customer neglect.
