My sister just wrecked her car, and needs a good reliable
replacement, with good fuel economy. I know little about the V40 except
that it's one of Volvo's 'partnership' cars, I think with Mitsubishi?
Anyway, is a V40 automatic with 152k miles that received regular dealer
service a god bet, or nearing the end of its useful life? Any problem areas?

If the previous owner took care of the car then no but your car is a
certified Volvo so most items should be covered under warranty
