Default Back in a P3.

Having been running around in a V50 for some time, which btw are a great car, I spotted something and went for it. Very high spec 215 D5 SE LUX ;
Polestar optimised, laminated glass, towbar (never used), blis, city safety, driver support pack, sensus, nivomats, manual, start stop, etc.

Very nice, like the alloys.

My V70 Rdesign is the 215 D5 and its brilliant.

Enjoy your new motor.

Stunning looking car, I'm mildly jealous.

Good choice mate. Hope it treats you well.

I have the s80 which is similar to yours in grey. Your alloys are better though.

Have you still got you v50?

V50 sold to a member in Scotland. Alloys are rather nice although one is to be replaced as it has a crack that's been welded and has a slight buckle.
