After 4 long months, i can finally say 'Hi' from the still sunny Cyprus.

I was hesitant leaving my old friend of the past 14 years (Rav4 2004) but after driving my new beauty the last few days i must say i am impressed and pleased with all aspects of the car.
Thanks to this forum i had clarified many of my questions making my decision to purchase the car easier.

It's a D4 R Design Crystal White with a couple of extras.

I had noticed may be another 4 to 5 "brothers/sisters" enjoying their rides in my town before and now I am one of the new happy members of this family :)

Cheers everyone
Chris

Hey Chris,

Hope you're enjoying your XC40 :)
I'm currently waiting on mine.
What extras did you include?

Hi Guys

I got my XC40 about 2 weeks ago and I'm in love with it.
Mine is the D3 R-Design Bursting Blue with extras.
I've yet to see any other XC40's on the roads but when I do, I'll be sure to honk at them ! :)

Hi all,
yes its a really nice car, i really enjoy it.

Hi Andrea,
From extras i have choosen:

Panorama - Love it
H&K - I was expecting a bit more to tell you the truth
Parking assist (front/rear) and 360 cam - Perfect for me
Leather sits - Quite comfortable
Active Bending Lights and Cornering fog lights - Very useful on dark highway and corners

Yes good idea niteshade, lets do the honk twice as a greeting to other members :)

Great extras.
I ordered mine two weeks ago. Wasn't too sure on carplay and leather seats with Cyprus weather and all.
How long did you have to wait?

I ordered mine 2nd of May and got it around 25th of September.
Ac is very effective so no concern for the leather.
I have also added android auto but... It's not available yet for Cyprus :(.

I was also disappointed to find Android Auto is not available yet for Cyprus.
Same goes for the Volvo on Call app unfortunately which I wanted to use :?
Hopefully we'll get them soon!

Was the Android Auto an extra?
Also I thought the Volvo on Call was available... disappointed really as I'm sure the CTC sales guy said it was available.
Btw, we can start a FB group for XC40 (Cyprus) if you're up for it.
