Wow sorry to hear that!

Given the rarity of the V8 and the spec I truly hope you get a good resolution from your insurers / the dealer.

I wanted a V8 too and spent ages looking but settled for a 2007 3.2 Executive in the end. I often wish I had the patience to have waited longer for a V8 but they are exceedingly rare beasts.

Seb (best Volvo man in the country !) has just put a V8 up for sale. If it matches what you want just call him and buy it over the phone - you wont need to see it !

Hi, if you’re still looking for a V8 I have a grey 56 plate Executive with 119,000 miles and it’s probably coming to the market soon. Just back from a few weeks in rural France but after having it for almost a year I acknowledge it’s not practical for driving around London. It’s tidy enough but not perfect.
