I'm getting around 37 from my 2.4 without trying.
I'm thinking of getting it re mapped to see if that'll give me some more MPG's

Dont get a chip....get it remapped!!!!!
Best by far is Grant at Braco....
V E S Autosport
(01786) 880941
Mid Lane The Garage, Braco, Dunblane, FK15 9QR

I've had at least 3 vehicles done by him, (2 x Discoverys and an XC70) stonking knowledge which is a priority and performance.

I have a Volvo Polestar on my latest V70 though only because of warranty limitations etc, otherwise I'd have gone back to Grant.

20 mins up the road from Falkirk. (15 minutes on the way back....LOL)

26mpg is a bit low, should be touching 30 at the very very least.

Harry, I'm thinking about a Polestar remap for my V70 - are they around the £600 mark?

(same as you- worried about the warranty...)
