Volvo V60 polestar

Anyone tried one?

They were £50k list when launched but realistically traded for about £40k. Now at 3 years old they are £28k ish.

Took a test drive last night in one.

Superb. Better steering than mine, ohlins dampers make a lovely ride, great sound. In short I was impressed. Only area that disappointed was the gearbox which was slow to react compared to the f30.

Then again I open the garage and look at mine, just the spec I always wanted, pro nav, adaptive xenons, heated seats, hk etc, and that all important 3.0 6cyl turbo petrol up front. Not as exclusive/rare as the Volvo but never ceases to entertain.

It's would be only used on a Sunday really, my car is 2014 with 7400 miles.

Keep or change?

I realise that. Just wondering if anyone else has owned a polestar to get a couple of views.

Having googled it and seen some pics, stick with your BMW.

I quite like some of the new Volvos (the XC90, for example). but not sure on that V60 at all.

We had a test drive last summer, nice drive just not worth the price tag.
