Been looking for a nice petrol V60 for a while, spotted this imported one today http://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202309192158583 but just how bad will the fuel consumption be versus a standard 2.0l T4 or T3 engine?
Difficult to say... I had a V70 2.4t AWD years ago, essentially a T5 with AWD.
Consumption was worse than the 2WD T5, but it was older style haldex AWD system so maybe they are a bit more refined on the newer ones?
I actually prefered it to the T5, just because it handled better, despite being slightly slower in a straight line as the turbo charger was not as agressive as that on the T5, and the AWD system added a certain amount of weight and drag through the drivetrain.
