Re: Delivery Date

Dealer just called to say my delivery date has been reset from next Wednesday 20th to July 15th. It's pathetic really. Volvo must have known before today that the car won't be here for next week.

Only kept it for 6 months but on hindsight realised I enjoyed the configurator and anticipation more than the car when it finally arrived. With the Volvo xc40 my expectations are that provided the shopping bag hooks reve...

Re: Diesel or Petrol?

I thought buying a diesel would be like buying a fur coat 20 years ago. The truth about emissions and mpg is irrelevant, perception is reality and politicians react to the perceived reality with idiotic declarations.

Re: Volvos Diabolical handling of the XC40 fiasco

Maybe it's part of Volvo's plan to ensure no one ever dies in one of their cars?
