I speced up an XC90 using carwow and the best I was offered was 5.3% discount.

Last I checked, DTD were offering 8.5% (I assume calculated with the price of the vehicle only discounted, then delivery/plates/tax added and then VAT on top)

Negotiated with my dealer and got 10% which was about £6,000 off the list price from memory. Not as much of a discount as available on the other models as has already been said, but better than I could find anywhere else online.

The affiliate discount last time I checked (IAM) was 2% discount + metallic paint. Not sure if it's been changed in Q4.

DTD = Drive The Deal, like Car Wow etc.

I used them to source my current R Design old model - great service I experienced.

Although replacing them will be expensive as they retail at £240 each!

Also is there a reduction is road noise on the 21 inch rims?

Thanks
Hi DB,

I have the same pack and can confirm the tyres are scorpion verde.

The 21's and air suspension create no significant road noise on my car.

Cheers

Thanks for that, I placed the order last week before the price rise and went for the Dynamic pack in the end, magic blue, Amber interior, xenium, blis, family, winter pack, walnut inlays, laminated and tinted windows and subwoofer.

Looking forward to it arriving and seeing the difference between it and my current inscription. It's a shame Volvo don't allow you to specify all season tyres on the options list.

Sounds nice!

Price rise? How much is the price going up by?
