Hah, I'd agree with the pulse thing- I was full of adrenaline when I got back with mine. It was only about 10 miles drive home, but empty country roads and Dynamic mode!

- This. Recommended was 34F and 37R and I found it to be 52+ on all 4 corners. This prompted me to get the 4-wheel alignment checked independently also but thankfully that was fine.

- If possible check whether the headlamps are adjusted correctly (mine were pointing too high).

- AHBA may be standard on SVR so check that it is available in the instrument menu > driving features.

- Seat leather fitting may not be an issue as SVR has different seats but still worth checking.

- Listen for the fuel slosh but normally only audible when the tank is around half full. Again, not sure if this is an issue with Diesels only or with Petrols too. Current: Volvo XC90 T8 Inscription Pro PHEV with some optionals on top

unfortunately without going down the SVO Bespoke route $$$ i was unable to get the black wheels from the factory.

My dealer was pretty accommodating, Car was sent to the detailers for a full Gtechniq Crystal Serum black protection. Whilst it was there the car was placed on axel stands with the wheels sent away to be sprayed in santorini black. One thing to remember is that you'll need to buy black wheel nuts along with the locking nuts and new centre caps to finish it off. 2019 Urban Urus - May Delivery. Gone to the dark side...

An SVR on Jersey is like keeping a race horse in your living room! 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

I wonder what the 0-30mph time is for an SVR!

Keeping to 70mph is hard enough in a diesel RRS

Looks amazing, pity it is not easy to spec the black wheels from the stealth pack for these. MY16 3.0 SDV6 Autobiography in Aleutian silver, stealth pack and toys.

Looks fabulous Oli, I hope you're really pleased with it.

Dave, unfortunately you can't fit the 22"s from the stealth car as the 275/40 standard tyres aren't suited to the SVR inputs.
