Brill. I'm in!Originally posted by NotAllThere View PostI like my XC70 - comfortable, quiet and reliable. Handling is fine, and with 205HP D5 engine, it's fast enough - got to 220Kph (140mph) on the autobahn with no difficulty. The satnav's a bit crap though.
The V40 has the same engine in a smaller car, so should go like the clappers.
