I've just collected my T5 Phev and I'm loving it! However, the car doesn't come with locking nuts, this seems a little odd to me as every other car I own has locking nuts - including my wife's Fiesta Zetec.

My questions are:
1. Is it really worth having locking nuts nowadays?
2. Is it worth paying the premium for Volvo nuts/bolts?

I'm assuming all XC40's don't have these nuts/bolts and this is a cost cutting exercise.

Cheers
Ian.

All XC40s should come with locking wheel nuts. It's in the "Alloy Wheels" section of the "Standard Features" section of the Price and Specification document. are you sure you don't have any?

The wheel nuts have covers over them so you have to use the provided tool to remove them. Once you do that you will see the locking nut.
