There’s a nice man from Volvo about to collect the S60. I’ve been driving it rather harshly but this everyday Swedish saloon is still managing 40+ mpg – amazing.

I’m sure you could tickle 60mpg out of the D3 model will a little less right foot but the S60 feels so ‘together’ I’ve been encouraged to make serious progress around the Cotswolds today.

I guess I’d by lying to say the Volvo is exciting but that doesn’t mean you can’t fling it around with abandon.

Buy one for superb safety features, strong engines, a classy interior, plus the fact it isn’t German.

Don’t buy one if you want to turn heads.
