Spoke to my dealer today he said the same allocation for this next 12 months very low and they have already sold over half of it !!
Plus their last 4 orders have been declined by Volvo
He reckons volvo could suspend orders soon until they catch up with existing ones

I can see a lot of sense in pausing orders rather than give out very long lead times.

My order was cancelled. If I re-order now I lose out on the finance offer which is worse than when I originally ordered.

Might buy an F-Pace :roll:

Now that is a brave decision!

Whilst I didn't have serious issues with my 1st Ed F Pace (I classed them as minor and annoying), I know a number of people who did. And the F pace forum continues to demonstrate that JLR have got some serious issues .

Yes but at least he will have a car to moan about!
Have you looked at the Lexus NX? Loads of kit and fab customer service. Get one on a 24 hour test, rather than the 1/2 hour Volvo offer :twisted:
