Hello Bob good news received today from the DVLA. My V5C Registration Document reads as follows; "Make - VOLVO" "Model - XC40 FIRST EDITION D4 AWD AUTO" Assurances from my Volvo Dealer about the model description were correct. The Volvo Dealer was also very good with the deal bei...

Thanks Julian, I am very happy it has been resolved, I really didn't want to cancel the order as I knew from evidence on here that in all likelihood it would have the correct description, but the Sales Manager at the dealer was adamant that it would be described as an R-Design, hence why I pushed t...

Thanks Andy and scottpcs. The dealer has been in touch with the Product Manager, Volvo U.K. Ltd, and here is his reply: It should show First Edition, but we are aware of a few that have come through showing just R-Design which we’ve amended with the DVLA, as it definitely should say First Edition. ...

Is there anybody in the forum that has recently taken delivery of an XC40 FE that is definitely an MY2019 model, and have received their V5C from the DVLA? i.e. someone who ordered in the two weeks after the launch date and they have only recently received the car. If so what is the model listed as...

Does anyone else have two metal brackets protruding up in the drivers seat cushion near the back of the seat, the right side keeps digging into my hip, so have to sit further forward on the seat. For clarification these are covered by the leather but just below the surface. Not th...

Ordered my First Edition on the 14th March with an ETA of 31st May, delivery revised to end of June/July, subsequently followed by dates in October, the final delivery date being 9th October. Great news today from the Volvo Dealer confirming it has been built and provided me with the VIN number. Del...

After such a long delivery delay I can see Dealers having an issue over PX depreciation and reneging on this part of the deal. The rest of the contract should be straight forward, especially the £1500 HP contribution from Volvo. With problems other than PX I would contact the Managing Director of Vo...

It would be interesting to know the actual order form dates, coupled to the projected last First Edition delivery dates. When ordering my First Edition on the 14th March, my understanding from the Volvo Dealership, I was very close to the deadline for First Edition orders. The estimated delivery dat...

Hi Pdawlall Greetings from North Yorkshire, beautiful looking car, do like the colour and 20" wheels. Enjoy. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FE | D4 | AWD | 20" | Crystal White |...

Thanks for your comments pjm, you've certainly given me a couple of points to think about. As it happens, the car is at the dealer for a week next week to have a few things looked at (mainly replacing the sunroof seal amongst other things) so I'll ask them to check the upgrade over then. I would've...
