Shock, horror .... sold my FE today.

Dealer offered me a very good price. Covered all my costs over the 6 months, plus a nice additional profit.

I will retire from posting on the board ... but may still lurk!

Possibly nothing in the interim, possibly a little runabout. No need to replace like for like right now.

Yes no problem. Nothing negative re. the car at all. Just a change of personal circumstance (no ongoing need for this size & type of car) coinciding with the dealer enquiring about buying it back (unusual I know!).

Blimey. Same here would have never expected that post! Especially given your recent polestar exploits.

Good luck with what you go for in the future.

Thanks senwar. I would still recommend the Polestar upgrade to anyone.

Also sold mine to a main volvo dealer for a small profit, had it 5 months, could not wait to get rid of it, what a load of rubbish, had problems after 3 days when brakes failed, failed again 2 days after getting back from repair, took nearly 2 weeks to solve it and waiting for bits, the build quality was very bad for a car of this price range, expected much better, service and attitude received very poor, really glad to see it drive away, have now ordered a proper car, audi Q5, first of September delivery, great.
