Have just been invited by a marketing company working for Volvo to attend an event to provide feedback on my XC40. They are paying me £100 plus expenses to " take part in a 1.5 hour face to face discussion about the XC40 (including a short drive-out), where you will be given the opportunity to...

I cant get more than 34mpg even on a 100mls + run, even with eco and driving like a saint, its hopefully going in for a 3 mth check in a few days i'll see what they say about the mpg. Not impressed after 2500miles expected it to improve, Fortunately the rest of the cars overall performance makes up...

Hi all My dealer is very slow with the £350 refund from Volvo for my vehicle a T5 FE delivered without the headlamp washers all they have said is “ we’re making progress” how has anyone else received this refund and how long has it taken ?? When we collected the car it was me who had to mention thi...

D4 with 1048 miles on the clock, averaging 39 mpg. Most of the mileage has been motorway, last trip was 115 miles, mostly motorway but some town driving app showing 46.6 mpg. Best figure so far has been 49.3 mpg. Had a V40 D4 courtesy car with 1000 miles on the clock for a trip to Holland a couple ...

While I appreciate your frustrations, your new XC40 will be depreciating at alot more than £199 a month when you get it - so to be mobile for that cost is very attractive. Its a max £25 every three months to change insurance so another £8 per month. You have a £35k car on order. Its small change in...

I also don't see why I should be out of pocket because my car has been delayed from September to December. My dealership told me that they have a finite number of V40s available (so I would have to request one yesterday pretty much) to XC40 customers which would cost £199 a month and do not include...

To be fair it's only described as a "Steel Safety Grille"

I know, had one in a previous XC70 - did the job but got sick of cleaning the boot out!!

But it doesnt keep the dog off the rest of the boot / windows and perhaps more importantly, doesnt allow you to raise the boot without the dog being able to escape - not ideal if you get an issue by a fast flowing road. I have a fold down cage from Pets at Home which keeps dog safe and allows me to ...

Very nice - now which of the current cars is it replacing...?

...and it's at the dealership! 20 inchers and headlamp washers intact. Dealer is adamant that it is a FE but it's all about the V5C now... ...now where's that snaglist on here to send to them. Picking it up tomorrow! Have you had the V5C yet? Not such a stupid question as I received mine from DVLA ...
