Yeah that's right ABL package is Active Bending Lights plus all mirrors auto dimming and cupholder/doorpockets illuminated.
I wouldnt worry about the Irish configurator Crockers they'll probably get round to changing it next year.!

18's 20's 18's 20's ......oh I don't know. A grand extra and then more per corner when replacing them or ...put the money into Polestar and drive the 18's off the rims. Decisions, decisions ...and with no lottery win tonight to help with the choice, I think Polestar wins... Back to the configurator.

I have 18" wheels & just love the way I can park in confidence with no risk of kerbing my precious alloys ....... and with my Polestar I still cannot drive it off it's rims.
Decision made for you I reckon!

I tow a boat up a shingle beach...I don't know what I'm thinking about at times...of course 18's are the only way. Cheers though for the reality check. Hope the polestar feels different from the my10 205hp that I now drive.

Just configured my spec XC60 and its coming out at nigh on 42k now (slightly under 39k previously). The zephyrus wheels are now an option along with other bits and pices......eeeeeeek...!

There is not that much difference between MY12/13 and now really, apart from a few styling tweeks inside and out, and the new style sensus. Is such a price increase worth it?

Regards

20" Avior wheel upgrade
ABL light package..grrrrr.!!
Winter pack.
Can't wait for Volvo no. 7

Hi,

Was Sensus touch an extra or part of the High Performance Multimedia option?

Cannot find anything about Sensus Connected Touch in the XC60 info and my dealer knows nothing about it!

Hi Mjhants

I went for the Multimedia as you need the 7 inch screen for Sensus (or so I'm told) plus I wanted the Premium Sound.
The Sensus Touch is a accessory so can't be factory fitted,must be done by the dealer,but you MUST have the 7 inch to start with.
Hope after all this it's worth it.!!
Have had several panic attacks regarding colour was really tempted by Java but something about a brown Volvo didn't sit well with me and as much as I like black I think I need a rest from black cars,pain in backside to keep.
So Electric silver it is..!!

Hope you're all getting good discounts. There is a £2000 tactical amount available from Volvo to the dealer on top of dealers own discount. Plus 5 yr servicing for £500 plus 0% finance over 2 years. Gosh this is a massive discount to shift metal - god help residuals in a year or twos time. I've seen my car devalue from list by over 50% in 18 months - ouch.

R-Design now comes with DAB and Bluetooth as standard, but leather seats are a £500 option and R-Design models no longer have the rear centre armrest and cupholders (although maybe this is included with the £500 leather uphostery upgrade?)
