Spotted that my old car was up for sale with Volvo Edinburgh.
2020 T4 Momentum Plus Winter Pack with 6K on the clock for £27k.
That's pretty decent for the mileage; my V60 went back a 2 months ago, went to auction, was picked up by a dealership in Perth and was on their site for exactly what I paid for it back in 2019. D4 Momentum Pro with most options ticked, 26k miles (16k added by me) - they were asking £24k. Had a look earlier this week and it's off the website, so someone snapped it up.2020 T4 Momentum Plus Winter Pack with 6K on the clock for £27k.
BCA collection yesterday after 35 month lease, 2 scuffed alloys at £56 each, other marks within standards, a very fair collection based on what I’d read elsewhere!
No more leasing for me as no longer good value, but ordered a new XC60, they were doing some decent deals off list including a loyalty bonus and 0% finance. Reckon depreciation will be less than lease cost. Sad to see it go as it was an excellent cruiser, but glad to have a more colourful replacement in Red, Volvo are becoming like BMW and bigger cars only monochrome.

Manheim collection today of my V90, straight fwd and reasonable. Max £108 charges, 60 for a very badly scuffed alloy, 48 for a small dent in driver's door. Happy with that to be honest..
That’s interesting, Manheim collected my car and I was awaiting the usual bill for the two slightly corroded alloys and a scratch on the passenger door handle but heard nothing until I got the ‘your car has been sold and your account is now closed’ email - they didn’t even ask for the 2 months worth of settlement charge that I apparently owed!Bubba Zanetti said:
Santander currently have the V90 on at £600/month for a 24 month lease.
2020 seems a long time ago when I got it for £280/month.
Blimey. I had the 18 month V60 for a bit less than that in 2018, then from March 2020 with Arval, a S90 on a 3+23 for £274, extended a year ago for a little less... going back in a couple of months time... probably going to buy something.2020 seems a long time ago when I got it for £280/month.

After a bit of feedback from those who have driven these.
I’ve picked up a used S90 D4. Drove up from down south yesterday whilst it felt a great and comfortable car a couple of things have got me thinking.
Auto gear stick feels quite heavy and clunky is this normal?
Brake pedal feels very firm all seems to work ok but not much movement in the pedal doesn’t look like any brake work has been done prior to handover.
Also about 70-80 mph there feels like a very slight judder mostly feel it through the steering wheel and maybe the accelerator pedal I also see the passenger seat moving in the same rhythm. I’m guessing that’s not normal but suppose it could be something simple like wheel alignment or wheel balance.
Appreciate any feedback!

Yes gear stick is like that in my V90 too. I’ve picked up a used S90 D4. Drove up from down south yesterday whilst it felt a great and comfortable car a couple of things have got me thinking.

Not had the brake issue mine is fairly soft
Not had the juddering at all.
Let me know if you want any roof bars i'm selling mine next week
S90 went back after 4 yrs a few weeks ago.
Was a great car and had no reliability issues.
I live pretty far from a Volvo dealer so never got around to servicing it with them, just changed the oil myself at home. Ended up with a mere £360 penalty fee applied for no service history - probably still saved what £1k plus over not servicing it at Volvo?
I got it in 2019 on the £92+Vat per month deal with worked out to about £190/month in vat once I included 10k miles. Nothing around like that now.

I've never missed a service on numerous leases, my current XC60 is due a service last one before its returned in May. I'm surprised the penalty isn't bigger. I expect the XC60 to be worth ~40k when it's returned if I was parting with that kind of money I'd wany something with full history.Gassing Station | Volvo & Polestar | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
