Your performance figures differ from the Volvo media website which quotes 0-100 km/h times of 8.5 ( manual ) and 8.9 ( automatic ). This equates to 0-60 mph of 8.2/8.6 by my calculation. Where did you get your information from ?
From the brochure I have. I think that the Volvo official site uses 0-100 km/h as in 0-62 mph and not the usual UK way of 0-60 ..... does make a difference but not much.

Either way, how often do we drive like that?!

(comes from me who did have an MB AMG E55 for about 9 months.... quicker than most Ferrari's!)
