Was just about to reply in your other post, but thought I'd check in here first. Not sure what the forums rules say, but are you able to divulge which dealership you have gone with?

Of course if you and I were to be having some kind of private conversation that wasn't seen by anyone and wouldn't ever show up in any Google search results then who knows what topics we might discuss.

My dealer will deliver if I want, both for free (putting miles on the car) and for a fee (on the back of a transporter) but I actually want to go and collect and get the experience / first drive myself. Will go with a mate and have an overnight stay / night out into the bargain, make a mini road trip out of it.
I must admit I'm a little worried about having to correct any issues that might arise with the dealer being a fair distance away, but I'm hoping nothing that serious crops up, and collecting in person gives me a chance to inspect before driving away.

I, like you, opted to go and collect the car as I wanted to see it in person. I was pretty nervous with the idea of driving it back but had fun playing around with Pilot Assist, which I have since yet to use back in London! I haven't had a need to take it in yet, but I am also in that position of not wanting to return the car to the original dealer just for a service. So when my three month check comes up (pretty soon) I'll probably give one of the London dealers a go and see how it fares. |

I tried that but they were not interested. Their loss (but maybe their gain still with the servicing)

There would be no problem getting it serviced or having warrenty work done at any dealer in UK, problems would only arrise if car is delivered with faults such as the road noise issues then I assume you need to give supplying dealer the chance to rectify but if collecting anything like than can be spotted on test drive |

I also wonder if volvo will respond to the concerns about diesel and bring the XC90 T5 to the UK - it's available elsewhere in RHD (Japan) so it should be an option. Maybe the S/V90 range will also see a more options as while we are currently restricted to D4 / D5 choice - the T5, T6, D3 and T8 are all offered elsewhere. |

If you're eligible for the Volvo Affinity scheme, that will give a discount far in excess of likes of DTD/Carwow (in my experience now, just about to order a S90).
