Which Volvo XC40 should I buy?

Which used Volvo XC40 should I go for? I do mostly town driving, with half a dozen long trips per year.

The T3 has all the power you really need and won't cost a fortune to run. PHEV will be very cheap to run and can fall back on its petrol engines for long drives, it only really makes sense if you have a home charger though. Same goes for the Recharge electric, it's 260-mile range means long drives will need a mid-trip recharge.
