2012 XC70 - Jack Wanted

[The Stimulator]

I was fortunate enough to be able to get a Tempra spare wheel, but am still on the look out for an XC70 Jack if anyone has one available.

Many thanks

Me too. I was horrified to find that my XC70 has no spare wheel of any kind and a can of goo that will write off the tyre if used as an emergency repair. And this is on a vehicle which boasts an off road capability. I'd prefer a full sized alloy spare but apparently the wheel well won't contain it so a skinny temp spare is all I can carry. Does anyone know where I might get one for the 18" XC wheel together with a jack and a wheel brace?

I was very impressed with the car but this lack of emergency equipment is very disappointing from a company like Volvo. What do they provide for their Swedish customers living in the north of Sweden where the temperature can drop well below freezing and it can be dark for 24 hrs a day. Under those circumstances wouldn't anyone want a real spare wheel and if so why can't I have one?
