Superb second car

Purchased with front and rear sensors- you really can’t judge where the bonnet ends- has been trouble free over nearly six years and 40k. Fuel economy is excellent. I can achieve 70mpg on out or town runs. No complaints about infotainment system. It is intuitive and better than on my x3. Speakers could be more powerful however. Space is a slight let down. My hulking sons feel a little confined in the back. The boot floor has an annoying lip with seats folded. This could have been sorted with an adjustable shelf but hey ho.
I have automatic gearbox which is excellent. I do find the ride a bit crashy but nothing like as bad as previous Volvo S60. Even in these crazy days of secondhand prices it is a contender
