I've had a V60 D4 SE manual since mid-July and done just over 6,000 miles.

It replaced a 2011 V60 D3 (with the 163bhp 5-cylinder motor) and I thought that would be a tough act to follow, as I REALLY liked that car. But the D4 is even better. The engine has even more punch that's even easier to access, it's a very quick car.

It's more economical too. I've averaged a genuine 49.5mpg at the pumps from new (about 35% motorway driving, 65% short town / urban trips of 10 miles or less).

The only thing I miss about my old V60 is the lovely 5-cylinder warble.
