We're thinking of upgrading the car next year and I really fancy an XC60 T6/T8 Recharge. We need something bigger than the VW T-Roc we currently have, which was bought to fill a gap and provide hassle free, cheap motoring for a few years whilst we saved for our wedding. It's done a great job of filling that role to be fair but i'll be glad to make the change.

My question though, is the Bowers & Wilkins sound system worth trying to find on a second hand XC60? How much better is it than the standard system? I've had B&O systems in a few BMW's before, and they were really good - much better than a standard system.

There aren't many XC60's with the B&W system in them but i'm wondering if it's worth trying to find one?

Thanks

Stunning system, was a £2,500 option on XC60 so not many takers, the Harmon Kardon should be more readily available though.

I’ve got it in my V60. I’ve had cars with various upgraded audio over the years. Bose, HK, B&O, Dynaudio to name but a few and it really knocks spots off them all. Sound quality is excellent and stays excellent upto ear bleeding volumes.
