Just thinking about this some more, there is one thing about Volvo that would stop me coming back and that’s the standard warranty cover. I drive somewhere between around 35,000 and 40,000 miles a year in a car that’s not a company car. With a Land Rover, they will cover me for the full 36 months, with no mileage restriction. With the Volvo, I’d be on my own from the 18-21 month point.
It’s good for the low mileage, private (or retired) user but, by the manufacturer’s own admission, it’s not built (and then backed by them) for those that use it for their livelihoods.
