Hello All,

After much debate the wife has narrowed her choice of cars down to 2. The Honda CRV and Volvo XC60.

I was wondering if anyone here has a XC60 and wanted to know their opinions on their car.

Your response will be much appreciated.

LP.

What do you want to know?

I occasionally work for a couple of Volvo dealers as a consultant, and towards the end of last year sorted out changing my Dad's XC90 D5 Exec for and XC60.

They're a brilliant all rounder (as long as you don't need 7 seats). Very comfortable, nice and surefooted with decent steering. The T6 goes well but is very juicy.

I'd go for a D5 SE Lux. The manuals are fine, but the autos probably suit the car better.

Panoramic roof is a nice option, and the active xenon lights are very good. Keyless is a worthwhile option also.
