Hi Spike; I had the Polestar upgrade installed on my 2014 V40, and also 12 months ago on my 2016 XC60 D4 AWD SE Lux Auto. The latter was a reduced price offer from my local Volvo Dealer whilst the car was still under Selekt warranty. I personally can't praise the benefits of Polestar enough, it somehow makes the car much more responsive and especially great for uphill overtakes on motorways, and also for prompt pulling-off at roundabout entry etc. The upgrade doesn't turn the car into a 'raging monster', but does make it overall much more fluid and authoritative to drive. The upgrade also reformats the gearchange points etc on the automatic gearbox, so this also has improved the 'feel' overall.
