Re: Oscar For Best Dealership Award?

I do apologies if you consider I went off thread when giving an honest opinion on your Dealership Oscars Awards for good customer service relating to XC40's Unfortunately the vast majority of XC40 customers have not had the same service as yourself, but it is pleasing to know there are some caring D...

Re: Oscar For Best Dealership Award?

The handling of the XC40 situation by VCUK has been an absolute shambles with appalling PR. Who ever is to blame for the mess, Dealerships have not done enough for XC40 customers regarding regular updates, even if there is no new information and giving the necessary support their clients deserve. To...

Re: MY19 "First Edition"

On the 14th March I ordered a XC40 D4 First Edition and that is what is stated on my Order Form. I am unperturbed if Volvo call it an R Design for the factory build process, because basically it is a R Design fully loaded. What will annoy me if Volvo UK register the car on the V5C Documentation as a...

Re: Delivery Date

Lucky you Roader with a mid September delivery date.

Though I ordered my FE D4 on the same date 14th March and had an earlier estimated arrival date than yourself of May, disappointingly my confirmed delivery date is in October !!

First Edition, D4, Crystal White, Charcoal, 20" Wheels.

Re: Delivery Date

Thank you Macksher for the information on a V40 Bridging Scheme loan car.

It will be of help when I discuss a loan vehicle with my Volvo Dealer.

Re: Delivery Date

Concerning serious delays on delivery of First Editions and other XC40 models, I understand Volvo have a Bridging Scheme involving the loan of a Volvo V40. Does anyone have any information on the Volvo V40 Bridging Scheme and the actual cost ? First Edition Ordered March - Estimated Delivery May - C...

Re: Volvos Diabolical handling of the XC40 fiasco

Placed a First Edition XC40 order in March with an estimated delivery in May, this was subsequently changed by the factory to October. Whenever I am in different locations, I seek out the local Volvo Dealership just to have a sit in their XC40 showroom model. Do any other prospective delayed XC40 ow...

Re: Volvos Diabolical handling of the XC40 fiasco

Bob you are spot on with your evaluation concerning First Edition models being re named R-Design. Presently my First Edition Factory Order paperwork states R-Design, which I am not happy with if it progresses through to Vehicle Documentation. First Edition, D4, AWD, Crystal White, Charcoal, 20'' Whe...
