Re: Is This a Good Way to Buy a Volvo

Gripross - Clearly a frustrating situation but why don’t you just cancel and reorder? Whilst not the same, my wife and I have also been annoyed with this new online ordering process. We originally ordered in August at full price with a £2k dealer loyalty bonus. In September, Volvo were offering £260...

Private Registration

Has anyone bought a new XC40 via the online sales model and put a private plate on? Can you have it registered with the private plate or do you have to take what you’re given and change it afterwards? Thanks!

Re: New car order last week but now Volvo doing inclusive service pack

I've wondered about that myself Larry (especially the service only ones) given the prices quoted on another thread. One service is more than a service plan! Also wondered therefore what was actually done when serviced though it's supposed to be as per the service schedule. On a brighter note, the s...

Re: New car order last week but now Volvo doing inclusive service pack

I’ve spoken to both Volvo and the dealer today. I’ve cancelled my order made on 30/08 and will order again once the dealer has clarified matters with Volvo on Monday. Will now be getting the £2,600 discount and free service pack as part of the September promotion. Volvo also told me that I’m still e...

Re: New car order last week but now Volvo doing inclusive service pack

I’m in the same boat. Ordered an Ultimate on Wednesday with service pack. Same order today is £3,300 cheaper! Very annoying. I’ve emailed my dealer today to say that I want to cancel and reorder. Will be nice if the loyalty bonus is still available on top of this!

Re: UK/Euro Spec XC40 Front Number Plate Bracket

Hello all - I’m in the process of putting a ‘short’ number plate on my FE and considering the different options. I’m tempted by the clean lines of ‘no screws’ but not sure if the ‘sticky pads’ will stick long-term to the back plastic bumper. Also not hugely keen to use sticky pads direct onto paint...

Re: UK/Euro Spec XC40 Front Number Plate Bracket

I've just put personalised plates on our XC40 the small plate works OK on the rear but it looks like the Euro fitting front plate mount would suit the reduced width private plate at the front, at the moment we have a full size UK plate because of the plate holder that's given me an idea to maybe ch...
