It's like a plane cockpit when dark. The d4 engine is super

Clock.

Got it back and have moved in sort of......
Fitted the flex floor and the spare wheel kit

Loads of under floor storage now.

When it's daylight and clean will get some pics


The D4 is a gem! Thanks to the 5-cyl configuration, it has that typical Volvo lovely throaty rumble!

Looking forward seeing some pics :)

Just Ordered My R Design
 
Just ordered my r design in titanium grey with the parking assist, the garage has told me they will let me know in two weeks when to expect delivery, does anyone know roughly how long this will take?

Cant wait for the car

Ours was about 6 weeks

6 weeks isn't too bad, did you get the d2 engine, whats the fuel ecom like, is it as good as they say

sprout99 Nov 21st, 2013 11:39

i believe the D2's have priority for some reason
I think it's to do with the big ad campaign going.

We ordered ours start of August and just got it Monday.

Never seen it in daylight !

Ours is the D4 R design Lux and according to dash and 300 miles on clock it's doing 45mpg at minute

Lovely!

As for delivery time, we ordered ours on 11th March and it was delivered on 10th May so more or less exactly 2 months or 8 weeks :)

Hi, my D2 R Design arrived just over a week ago. So far I`ve been getting about 52mpg and thats only on town driving.

Pretty pleased with that. The delivery driver who dropped the car off to me said that other people have been getting over 70mpg on long runs but it takes about 3 fill up`s on the tank to get that amount.
