Re: Inscription
Mine still has ticket holder on A pillar (5 weeks old). If that’s a USP people are easily pleased! It's often the little design details that sell cars. Others on here are upset by the lack of visible tail-pipes and the absence of text on the rear pillars which I don't give a toss about. But if they...

Re: Inscription
And I can remember when heated seats were standard on all Volvos - it used to be one of their USP's!

Re: New to Volvo
I've only had my XC40 for 2 years so it's too early to say whether it is the best car I ever owned! The current holder of that title is the V60 I had before the XC40, it was swift, comfortable and never set a foot wrong in the 8 years I owned it. The award for the worst car ever is easily won by my ...

Re: Album cover artwork not showing on car system
Have to admit that I gave up trying to play my own media because of GraceNote. I now just listen to the radio.

Re: MY21 only 1 main key confirmed
Do the restricted function keys offer the same protection against relay theft as the main keys? I believe that the MY21 main key now includes a motion sensor to help guard against relay theft.

Re: Volvo - An "old man's car" no more!?
In light of the controversy stirred up by the recent R-Design vs Inscription thread I thought that it might be worth trying to resurrect this very old survey.

Re: R-Design or Inscription?
In my humble opinion, the minute you put chrome on a car it becomes an old man's car and has to be driven accordingly, preferably with string backed driving gloves. Leave the chrome off and it can be any car you want it to be. Don't believe me? Next time you get held up on the twisty bits by someon...

Re: R-Design or Inscription?
It's all down to personal taste of course. I went for the Inscription because i don't like the black roof on the R Design. Black roofs work on some cars but in my opinion not on the XC40 - to my mind it makes it look like an old-fashioned pram!

Re: New XC40 - WiFi?
Thank you for the manual link - that will give me some reading to be getting on with. Obviously, after a week or two of reading, you WILL be subjected to testing just to make sure you’re reading it and not just scanning it.... And if you are doing the advanced diploma you will be expected to read i...
