    Managed to get a test drive, with another dealership, in a V60 that was virtually new. It was the much more powerful T8 plug-in, so he put it in a drive mode to get the engine recharging the battery to make sure I had no EV/battery assistance.

    Really like it and it’s gone straight to the top of my list. BUT wife is now unsure if she’d be ok driving it (mostly parking and manoeuvring in tight spots).

    It’s still an option and I even booked a date to return and order it.

    My wife said that I could park it for her and I did this the first few weeks when we got our Sportage. But I’m not always well enough to drive, so not knowing if my wife will eventually feel comfortable enough to park on our drive or not, makes me nervous to go ahead with it.

    At this rate I can see us ending up with another Sportage, albeit PHEV this time. Boring car and boring that it won’t really seem like a new car, but it does tick all the boxes (except fun) and is very good value this quarter.
