• Extortionate recovery charges 1 Aug 2009 (Forum)
  for recovery and overnight storage would 'only' be £260. Considerably more if paid by cheque/card, plus additional daily 'storage' fees! The good samaritan neighbour paid cash and has been reimbursed by the Bank of Mum. Daughter says that the police told her the recovery fee would only be £120...she

  I test drove a V60 the other day, nice car but had one anoying issue. The centre arm rest/ storage compartment is very high and forces your arm in to an unatural position for shifting gear.  Wondered if anyone else had a problem with this and indeed if you get used to it?

• Water contamination of fuel 7 Jan 2016 (Forum)
  How much water arrives at service stations in the tanker, how much gets in during delivery, and how much while customers fill up (in the rain) ? I guess it must build up at the bottom of the storage tanks - what is done to remove this, and how often?  Is it a frequent problem
