Are XC60 owners happy?

Vecais · Apr 10th, 2010, 04:16

The forums tend to focus on issues and problems. I am happy with my XC60 and have no problems. Anyone else?

Nothing is ever perfect but the XC60 is easily the best car I have owned in 35 years driving.

I have to say I am very happy with my XC60. only done 1200 miles so far
so it is early days. (I do have a couple of what I hope to be very minor issues which will be sorted at its quality assurance inspection)

Still Very Happy though.

Best car I have ever owned (+40 years on the road - mostly Merc's). Very comfortable, loads of power and lots of extras. Hoping to try it offroad soon.

XC 60 D5 AWD Geartronic

Due for 3000 mile quality check on Monday....no problems and very pleased with my XC60...seems to be very well built.

no real faults cropping up at all . Most of the technology is proved in the S80 from 2007 except city safety , but one must assume thats fully sorted , we cant really test that until the conditions are right to bring it into action .
There is a steering pipe retaining screw recall on certain XC60's which is an inherent FORD problem which Volvo have developed a better design fix for ..

XC 60 D5 AWD Geartronic

My recent car history:-
Audi 100 BMW 325 touring -Discovery - Range Rover - Audi s6 Avant - Audi A4 2.5 tdi quattr0 -all bought new.

Volvo XC60 D5 se lux geartronic - my first Volvo and a very good car indeed.
Exceedingly comfortable, and plenty quick enough.

13000 miles in 8 months, 33mpg. Only whinge, I should have got the DAB radio, as I can't listen to the cricket. Is there an aftermarket fit (not a Parrot) that I can buy?

You dealer has information regarding a software that can give you LW ...

I'll second that and add 1 year to the driving time!

If it weren't for the D4 EGR issue I would regard my XC60 as pretty much perfect actually - even forgiving its thirst for diesel!
