"The production vehicle was unveiled at the 2008 Geneva Motor Show. Sales began in Europe in the third quarter of 2008 and in North America in early 2009 as a 2010 model. The XC60 has been Volvo's best selling car since 2009. Manufactured by subsidiary Volvo Car Gent in Ghent, Belgium, the first generation XC60 is based on Volvo's P3 platform and the XC60 shares technology with the Land Rover Freelander of 2007. At the time of development, both Land Rover and Volvo were owned by Ford and development was split between the two subsidiaries. Much of the engineering and tuning of this CUV was done by Volvo in Sweden, although offroad capabilities were developed at Land Rover in England. In April 2010, an R-Design variant of the XC60 became available, featuring a colour-matching body kit, stiffer chassis and damping, and other unique exterior/interior trim.
This very nice example, imported from Japan, is presented in black with black leather interior and comes with an electric panoramic sunroof, electric memory seats, lane departure feature, obstacle warning, active cruise control, electric windows to front and rear and air conditioning. It also comes with a mileage guarantee certificate and is ULEZ compliant. This is a great SUV in good condition and is very comfortable to drive, as well as extremely practical. Please note that the stereo and odometer/computer will be UK OEM specification at the time of the Auction and has just had an oil service Consigned, by James Good. Consigned, by James Good
