Arrived!

Afternoon All
D3 Auto, R-Design, + bits, Sapphire Black, arrived on Friday. First impressions are better than the test drive, a very nice car. A much "keener" engine than im used to, seems ready to go all the time and the gearbox is quite direct.

Amazing build quality, better than the last 2 vehicles (both 4X4), Volvo seem to have captured that solid feel, but lost the "weight". (Hope that makes sense)
Had an Xtrail a while back, and this seems to have the same carefree puppydog attitude as that, but without all the ghastly tinniness, ghastly bits and pieces - oh and engineering that British Leyland would have been embarrassed with in 1975.

It's only been a few days but 10/10 so far, ill put in a fuel report on one of the other threads once iv'e driven it a bit.

A thanks to the forum for the free purchase advice you have silently given me over the last few months.
