I thought hard about the intellisafe pack, in the end it improved the residual of the car so was cheaper than I planned. Having had it, I wouldn’t go back - you get the pilot assist which is great on long mortorway drives, much more relaxing, and the blis mirrors and rear cross traffic alert are quite helpful too.
My other must have is the heated wheel - lovely on a cold morning!

The pilot assist function is very good, I would recommend that.

Depending on the engine / trim you pick, the V60 you could end up costing the same as the standard V90, where you get a few more gadgets, leather seats and extra space (but also higher running costs).

V90 Momentum D4 Auto £38,960, 4 year value £16,238.63
V60 Momentum D4 Auto (with Intellisafe, winter, Front sensors, conv pack) £38,310, 4 year value £15,044.25

Of course its not all about the finance :-)

Thanks for the replies, although the V90 is better value it’s just too big for me!

Has anyone got the 4 zone climate? Does it improve ventilation for the whole car with the extra air vents?

So this poll has been up a year and we have 265 SPA members voted; I recon that is 0.6% of all SPA owners in the UK (40,000 sold in the UK since 2016), not too bad for a forum.

I must confess that I voted on this and I don't currently own a SPA Volvo (although intent to buy) a V60....

I love the Xenium pack. As I came from a small car (Audi A1) the 360 camera has been a life saver. Also the self-park has really helped me out on the two occasions i've needed it for parallel parking.

Sunroof is HUGE, but it's never caused issue for me on any day - if it's too sunny I close the blind under it. It does make the cabin much more light and welcoming!

Other options I love are the intellisafe as I do 100s of motorway miles per week.

Heated wheel was lush in the winter too.

There will be a lot more than 300, just some of us don't join in the survey.
