Re: Can't find a D3 to test drive anywhere!

When I worked for Saab, many many moons ago, if you didn’t have a particular car in demo, you could book one out with a central pool and it would be delivered within 2 days. It was a great facility to use. I agree that dealers should have more than 1 demo but a demo is owned by the dealership which ...

When I ordered my xc40 at Stockport Volvo the demo car was a D3 momentum. Have you tried them?
I've tried every dealer in the NW. Stockport are yet to get back to me.

Can't find a D3 to test drive anywhere!

The wife is after a D3 Auto R design pro 2wd but can we find a D3 to drive in the NW??? Nope

Not one dealer has one either as a used or on demo.

I'm a bit reluctant to buy something she has never driven.

Re: GAP Insurance

I've had GAP for a long time. Don't buy from the dealer. They are way too expensive.

Eg. BMW wanted £500 to cover my 1 series over 3 years. Bought GAP from ALA for £125 with GAP protection for £17500.

Re: Where best to get a PCH deal

just a small update on this and some advice for those looking to get an XC40. If you want an R Design pro with not many toys, you'll be looking at over £500 a month!!!!! The actual figure I was quoted was £523 on a 4 year PCP or PCH, £1000 down and 15000 miles a year. Sadly the GMFV was £14200. That...

Unfortunately the car will be a lease so no Polestar for me. :cry:
