Great to see a 60 forum for 60 owners and will thin out the 90 forum that was getting a bit busy.

Who's got the job of moving all the 60 posts over from the old forum?

Why the split of the current xx60/xx90 SPA platform threads into 2 separate sections - I fail to understand the logic driving this change.........especially when the majority of the questions/advise/comments equally apply across all models on the current SPA platform.
A xx90 shares the same powertrain as a xx60 model surely, the same seats, the same Sensus, etc, etc ...... which results in the same users questions for advise and guidance - this forum split will reduce overnight the pool of users able to give relevant advise & help.
I have been an active forum member for over 10 years and could perfectly understand the logic of moving forums when I moved from the original XC60 Mk1 forum as the current XC60 Mk2 was on a totally different platform - but not this latest change.
Who was pushing for this move - why don't we have a user poll to democratically agree if this change is in the interest of its members.
Surely the only thing missing from the forum thread titles for our xx60/xx90 series has been incorrect signposting of the forum sections with the V60 being ignored.

Just saying....!!!

Can it not be returned to the original format. Splitting it is rather pointless and frustrating. It’s not as if the section was overrun with new postings.
