New S80 in less than 24 hours!
 
Picking up my new S80 - crazy considering I'm 22 years old! Tomorrow (Wed)

I felt like this when I got my new S40 2 years ago (new shape) but with the second S40 and S60 soon after, I didnt feel the same.

But tomorrow's different! Spec wise:-

07 plate Sapphire Metallic Black S80 SE D5 Lux
Geartronic, usual stuff really that the SE Lux has but its got the added option of ventilated seats.

No sat nav though I regret this now. I'll grab some pictures and stick them up here weather permitting.

22 with a new S80? Can your feet reach the pedals!?

When did you win the lottery!


Happy Birthday for tomorrow! :bananalama:

lol viper!
Now that made my day.... I almost thought it was my birthday!

Actually its a sort of all in one present - Finished uni last week forever so all that studying hopefully paid off... and also birthday is in a few weeks :-)

In all seriousness, a good deal with my local dealership who love me ! Good trade in for the S60 and the same such deal with the new S80 (demonstrator with 4000 for £27k with the specs above + bluetooth kit)

Cant complain!

Well Norwich Union's website was £60 cheaper than the S60 but on callng them, it came to £112 more

Altogether it comes to £1200 (give or take)

This is with 4 years NCB (soon to be 5)

That seems quite reasonable.

I pay £675 for an S80 2.5T, age 25, 3 years NCB, but 25 is a fair bit cheaper.

I'm happy with it... dont forget that the value of the car is £35000 or something (thats what i had told NU anyway) so value + age is normally expensive - and that is with one non-fault accident though NU re-instated my NCB along with a no-fault accident on file (other driver was driving on the wrong side of the road - headon)

so all in all, im happy.
