Yes, not seen another one yet (and hadn't seen it in real life prior to ordering!).

Some initial thoughts here:

No. Perhaps the Nordic countries have this option, but Volvo are missing a trick here. Mrs D's Panda Cross came fitted with winter tyres ex-factory.

I can confirm that Volvo Sweden does not offer the option of factory fitted winter tyres. However, the dealers usually do a deal if your new shiny Volvo is delivered in winter as its the law to have winter tyres fitted.

I saw my 1st XC60 today, it doesn't even have the license plates.

It was a R-design with 21" Pirelli P Zero.

We have the 20" version on ours of this tire. Dont like it as its feels you dont have enough grip. May change to Michelins if allowed by the government at home.....she reckons its enough with Pirellis for her.
