As well as being unimpressed with the econonmy, I'm slightly underwhelmed by the performance.

Doesn't seem to have much ooomph in the mid-range. I came from a 2.0tdi 168bhp A3, and was expecting it ( based on Volvo's 0-60 which is less, plus the higher bhp ) to feel faster, but it definitely feels slower.

It's maybe just the gearing, but finding I have to drop it at least 1 if not 2 gears for an overtake, when I could have got away with leaving in the same gear in the A3 in the comparable situation.

The V60 is about 200 kg heavier than the A3 so not that surprising.
