We’ve currently got an xC60 and extended it to the 5 yrs which ran out in December . The dealer we used for the XC60 no longer participates In the motability scheme . Which really is a shame as they have always been 100% . I will be using them to take it back for services etc . They treated us no differently.Yet this dealer has certainly looked down their nose at us and made us feel inferior . I’m trying to hang onto the XC60 as long as I can and will be gutted to see it go . I’ve had a good selection of 4×4’s Discovery, Range Rover , 2 x freelanders , 2 x Mercedes ML270 and Mitsubishi shogun . The Volvo by far as has been the best . This was my first motability car and up until we had to change dealership it has been a flawless experience .
Im now rather anxious reading posts about fuel consumption (we’ve gone for the PHEV inscription pro ) uncomfortable seats . We go away most weekends in the summer 80 miles away and my parents live 280 miles away so comfort is a huge factor . We could only test drive for 2 hrs was meant to be a day . With the XC60 we had that for a full day so did the an 160 mile round trip and that sold it on the comfort side .
The dealership has told us the car can be charged off a 3 point standard domestic plug ,is this true ? Not sure for the estimated 25 miles I will get if it will be worth plugging it in .
