I've owned a 63 reg D5 SE Lux (215bhp) Nav G/T & currently have a 17reg D5 SE Lux (220bhp) Nav G/T - both very reliable vehicles. One sat nav issue with the 63 car took 2/3 weeks to resolve but courtesy car was provided (an XC70) but other than that reliability has been excellent. I found Murray Volvo in Edinburgh to be a good dealer but sadly has now been taken over by John Clark. I ran the 63 car to 45k miles over 3.5 years on with no other issues (no pads/discs/DPF etc required). The later car is a slightly better drive, however the XC60 will never be the quickest, quietest or cheapest to run but I have found it hard to beat as a very good all round package. I would advise you to go for the latest model in your budget, with full Volvo service history. Hope this helps.
