Can anybody with a D2 advise what they are like to drive and live with please? I have had a short test drive from the local dealer, but it was too short to come to any real conclusions. Also is the R design a bit firm on the ride comfort?

Many thanks in advance for your opinions.

Hi

I made my mind up and pick up a V60 D2 Business Edition on Friday with the Driver aid pack, Winter pack and Security pack. Looking forward to playing with all the toys... I decided I would get more use of the built in Nav and included packs rather than a higher grade with leather trim and big alloys.

I've heard the powershift is a Ford gearbox and is to be avoided. I've felt a Mondeo diesel with one and it was horrendous. Reliability also not so good apparently.
