I now have an email quote for 8k miles @ £253 per month. Going to order that, seems a good deal.

Brilliant deal, so much car for the money.

[foxrocks]

Gonna see if they'll reduce mine to £253 in that case!

Are these direct through santander?

The website suggests 370 for the v60?

Direct with Santander but for the 250hp T5 petrol. The website is for the diesel.

I can't find any info on torque or 0-60.

Ive embraced my inner barge and have a V90 on order

Santander are great to deal with and the best deals are all on the cinderella petrol cars
18 months in an asthmatic slug with electric seats and a lot of nappa for not much cash - OK by me......

Cheers

Santander say if I want the car at £253 instead of £273, they'd have to do the credit application again. Not sure yet if it would affect my lead time but I presume not if the car is already on order.

Did they state a reason for the cheaper price? Surely it was already selling like hot cakes at £273.

If you can't beat em join em!

I was originally looking for a V40 but with the Santander T5 V60 offer I couldn't resist so all ordered today !

It’s all TBC on volvo site. The XC60 has 350nm with what I assume is the same 2.0 4cyl 250 bhp engine.

I’ve ordered one of these. Does anyone know the service schedule and will one be needed in the 18month leases?

[J50]

We have a V40 and the Service is annual and the Dealer cost was £329 for the first one I think.


I still don't get how all this works. Why does Santander Financing advertise cars and then you order one (V60 in my case) then Santander phone the local dealer and sort it all out and eventually I'll have to go to the dealer and take delivery etc. Yet separately the local dealer was nowhere near the price that Santander could offer and was much more expensive than others when I checked out a V40 price with them - yet when I got a price on a V40 from the local and another dealer... the financing behind it was shown as Santander. I don't understand how it all works...

Looks like it will be due a service at 1 year.... £329 (adds another £20 a month amortised)

I wasn't expecting that, but still happy with the price overall.

As far as I can tell the V60, V90 and XC90 are all on yearly servicing which is a bit old fashioned really, but great for the dealers

The 2y (and 4y) services are rather spendy which makes an 18 month deal pretty rational, in context VAG and BMW have schedules such that I can hand my 3 series back at 1 year and 51 weeks without it actually needing a service

I have just signed the paperwork on a V60 with the Inscription trim, prices are ex vat.

V60 T5 Inscription 8000 miles (inc metallic paint)
6+23 £272 +vat

Delivery quoted at 12-14 weeks.

[TeslaUK]

Order placed on the V60 with Santander @ £253 per month.

Jan/Feb delivery time. Would prefer it come sooner as current lease ends in December.

[Incognitotheone]

Very tempted by V60 T5 from Santander. Lovely car. One thing that is stoping me from ordering is choice of colours. Even with metallic no cost option they are all kind of standard, nothing stands out for me.

What colours have you ordered guys?

Denim Blue. Think it's ok. Not that fussed to be honest :-)

I ordered a V90 T4 this week, and was told that delivery of all new T4 orders was likely to be January now, and T5s in February!

Been told Nov 21st and that was ordered Aug 31st. Depends on the Dealer I presume...
