There has been much talk about the lack of XC60's on the road thus far. On the way home from work last night I spotted not one but three transporters in convoy which were full of XC60's heading up the A1 near Edinburgh.

I really hope they were not all destined for the local dealer as modest exclusivity is a a real plus point about this car IMO.

Has anyone else spotted them on route to the dealers and what are your thoughts on how well the XC60 is selling compared to its rivals e.g. Q5, Freelander and X3 (although new one coming out soon)?

I wonder how many people will buy into the new "Twilight" movie add.

Thought about that the other day too.

The ad is certainly trying to portray and sell the XC60 to a "younger" type of customer not normally associated with purchasing a volvo (of old). Nice to seem them diversifying.

Wonder what colour the XC60 in the add is, cant decide idf Saville Grey or Black? - looks good though

Great video. What XC60? All I saw was Kristen Stewart. Maybe I missed something. So did Volvo.
