Smile Just Arrived

Merhaba.
It's been 5 months since I ordered and it finally arrived at dealer and I had a chance to take some photos while it sleeps in dealer's garage. I hope to finish registration process next week and go behind the wheel before new years eve.

I've been reading this forum since I decided to order an xc60 after driving a c30 for 3 years, and I want to thank you all xc60 owners and 2b owners for helping me choose the correct xc60 that fits my expectations.

Here are some photos, sorry for the quality of the pictures and the enviroment. The car hasn't been cleaned, and it's transport protections haven't been removed. I'll take better pictures and share.

Looks great. I assume that is the T5 2.0T engine?

If so, I'd be keen to hear your opinions of the engine/gearbox in a week or two..

...Please tell us also about your first feeling about the R Design stiffer chassis and sharper steering as i hesitated a lot prior to select the R Design trim due to lack of information on these new enhancements (loss of comfort?, harshness?...).

Very nice

Sorry if this is a dumb question....Are they some sort of Disk brake covers on you wheels? They surely can't be drums.

If so what a great idea. My wheels get sooo dirty quick.

They are disk brake covers, but only for use in transit Bob. They have to come off before you drive it properly I'm afraid.....
