XC60 B5P R-design with a few extras, got a pretty good deal plus 3 years free servicing thrown in too. Sounds good - enjoy your new motor :) Thanks - just paid the additional cash to the dealer, collect the new car in the morning and give them their courtesy car back. Dealer is going to retail our ...

Unbelievably (or more so believably!) our car has failed yet again - the 5th time now since Christmas!
