Re: VOC is now Volvo Cars

Got the same just now.
Is it now no remote start of the car or the climate start in this app also starts the car engine?
The app has the full spec, at least the body colour, the seat colour and the sun roof, of the car :)

XC40 review down under

Still the best.
However the interior cabin shot is wrong. Perhaps it is update for the new MY. Can any with new orders confirm it?

Re: MY22?

It depends on whether your dealer has pre-booked build slot or not. Then the final (personalized) spec could be ammended before it is actually built.
Two years ago, I ordered mine in February for June delivery. It was the new MY.

Re: What Spec/Options to go for?

I have keyless entry. The remote key is too big for my liking and the sport key is much smaller and more comfortable in my pocket.

Re the option spec - folding boot floor, 360 camera, pilot assist and BLIS are highly recommended.

Re: New XC40, Glacier White T5 Recharge

Nice colour, I have the same colour in RD-pro trim in the UK. Couple of observation, the 100G data Vodafone SIM is for new cars in UK. Not sure the same promotion is also in Europe? Your car looks like have a few option upgrade. It looks like a momentum or inscription trim with the RD wheels. I like...

Re: Just collected from dealer

Long time ago I took delivery for a new BMW X5, when glanced at the fuel gauge, the needle was resting on one side, thought the tank was empty, went to refuel straightaway but found out that it was completely full, suprise suprise :)

Edit:
And it was a 90+ litres tank 😂

Re: Heated windscreen - am I missing something?

I think you may have all the functions you need when the car was last switched off then the remote next start everything as before.

Re: New xc40 R Design Pro with mods

My experience on the red was quite opposite.
It looks nice in the brochure and web site but very different in the flesh at the dealer.

Re: Built-in Volvo Satnav vs. TomTom (SIM was missing!!)

I've ordered the '3' 24 month/24 GB SIM from Argos. Should make the RTTI work a bit better! I did wonder how you stop the car burning through the 24GB with map downloads, but I've just found there is an Auto-download setting that can be switched off. And anyway, auto-download only seems to apply to...
