    I've been back to this thread looking at the pictures a couple of times since you posted them, I would seriously consider changing up to one of these when I next change my car in fact I think it may well be my next choice of car, once again a stunning looking car very jealous.

    No not one of the R range. Have driven a few of the lesser models and I find them quite nice to drive although they do feel a little less direct when I compare them to my 850 and a lot slower. I'm hoping the R's feel quicker and more direct as a result of the sportier theme.

    They really do feel faster, i can compare it to an 850 t5 my v70r and the c70 t5 plus quite a few lesser volvos

    A year ago and I'd have agreed with you 100% but now I really see the appeal of the dickinson shade leather especially on a darker coloured car either grey or black.
