I'm the proud owner of a brand spanking new XC60. However, give the lack to regular comments from XC60 owners on here (for what ever reason), I've come to the conclusion that splitting the XC60 and XC90 threads won't work. The XC60 posts would be so limited as to not be viable on their own IMO.

There are quite a few of us with the XC60......

Me being one of them and I'd prefer our own site. However, the XC60 is so new, and so well built there aren't that many complaints, comments etc.

Ooops - that might ruffle some feathers in the XC90 brigade and get force some traction from the forum admins

To be fair, I think the emphasis is on "new", and the remainder subject to a big fat "yet" :-)

+2 for a split, but I doubt it'll happen as the mods don't exactly seem too willing to change it !!

the older the xc60 gets, the more important this will be. The two cars are really not that similar, and i would like the forum split.

With my old car, a Golf GTI, the tyresmoke forums split up the GTI and R32 forums - and that's still the same car!

There's no reason to keep them together, other than the extra effort it will require the mods to actually do it.
