Re: Bristol port delay
Whereabouts in the country is your supplying dealer? Do all new Volvo's land at Bristol Docks now I wonder? Mine landed at Killingholme Docks in June last year. Prior to that they used Immingham Docks for the middle of the country. My dealer was in Grantham [/quote Mine also landed at Killingholme....

Re: Road Tax Robbery
I agree and also think this is what may have happened. I just wish that after numerous emails/calls that Volvo Support would investigate further and stop trying to fob me off. I’ve heard on the quiet that other owners are having the same issue.

Re: Road Tax Robbery
Hi, I added 19” wheels & tinted glass taking the list price to £39,855. The mystery £699 takes the value over the threshold.

Re: Road Tax Robbery
Thank you all for the replies. I’ve had the list price of my car checked by two dealerships and both agree that the value is under £40k. I’ve also had a webchat with the DVLA who said that a service plan should not be included when calculating the list price. After a month Volvo Support can still no...

Re: Road Tax Robbery
When I ordered my XC40 B3 plus last September I was careful to keep the list price below £40k to avoid the ‘luxury’ car tax. I calculated the list price based on the DVLA’s definition (the manufacturer’s published retail price, any extras fitted by the manufacturer plus delivery charges). The DVLA c...

Re: 360 Camera
Thanks everyone for your input. I think I will try speaking to the dealership again. The 360 camera was an expensive option and I would have expected the image to be clearer than it is.
Apart from the issue with the camera I love the car.

Re: 360 Camera
Thanks for the reply hdasmith. I had read that scottpcs managed to have the camera replaced but my dealer is adamant that the rear camera looks ‘normal’. I wondered if anyone else had the same issue and if so how was it resolved. I would like to go back to the dealer with more information/evidence.

Re: 360 Camera
Sorry starting this topic again but has anyone else noticed that the rear camera appears blue and less clear than the other surround cameras? I have mentioned this to the dealer but they insist that it is normal. Is this common with the 360 camera? If my rear camera is faulty I would like to go back...

Re: Delay compensation/car lease
I contacted Volvo Customer Services when my delivery date was put back from June to November. I was advised to contact the dealer about the V40 bridging scheme. Apparently you can hire a V40 at a reasonable cost until the XC40 is delivered. However, when I contacted the dealer I was told that they h...
