But its a 62 plate so can't be a MY14 can it?

Seems quick enough for me.

Yours must be pre-facelift (no front DRLs). MY13.

Given what has been said above, can anyone tell me please if this spec misses anything?

I guess I just need to be ready to have the alternator belt changed shortly after buying it?

It is an R design Lux (full leather, memory seat) with a few extras (front parkies), but doesnt have navigation and no sign of a winter pack (heated seats and windscreen) which is a common extra too. Ive got the Nav, but not sure if by not having it you still get the hard drive and audio interfaces.

Adaptive cruise isn’t fitted, but its more desirable on an auto.

Ask if it has a spare wheel - this was extra.

You could of course go nuts and still add another 10 grands worth of crap (glass roof, audio upgrades, bigger wheels, memory pass seat, BLIS, cameras, window packs etc etc) if you reall wanted to!

Nice looking car.

The MY 2016 brought 9 extra HP and the R design badge vanished, this looks like a MY2015 as it doesnt have the R on the seats that the MY2014 had.

It has heated seats so might have some winter pack.

It doesnt, the buttons arent there on the dash under the temp controls.

I can't see that far! The description is missleading then.
Also has two different makes of tyre on it but hopefully not on same axle.
Slightly overpriced for a manual but if its full Volvo history and has had its EGR final fix maybe worth a cheeky bid.

I'd only have an Auto (sorry Nigel), no footrest in the manual i'm told!

There is a big close up later in the photos to be fair, without that, I couldn’t tell.

There is and well spotted my friend.
I really hate it when dealers don't know the spec of the car they are selling.

Biggest disappointment with mine is the lack of footrest.......

Well one of them.......

This. I haven't trusted a description I've seen so far.

It's a shame about the lack of heated seats as that's something I've quite got used to on my current car.

As for the lack of nav, I was wondering about fitting an aftermarket solution from Kenwood at the same time as upgrading speakers (which I will do as I rather like my music). I have seen it done with a 7" touchscreen added where the existing unit is, featuring Garmin nav etc. It's around £550 fitted which would make it, from what I've seen on Auto trader, a better bit of value than trying to buy one with the nav package.

I'm really not sure between auto and manual. Enjoy the MPG of the manual but drive an auto at the moment and it is a joy in traffic. Presume there is a foot rest in the auto?

I'm going to have to try to get a test drive of an auto and manual to make up my mind on that front. If I like them, this could be a good auto option -
