    Thanks Herbie, I never run a car that low on fuel, but thanks for the advice. How does the heater work on cold mornings if the car does not use the engine all of the time?

    Thanks Mr Vlad, unfortunately mine does not have the ML sound system. It is a new Is300h in Manganese Luster with comfort pack & protection pack. The V40 I had was 190bhp & 0-60 in 7.4 secs & a lot of torque so quite nippy. I know the IS is a second slower 0-60, but I am getting older & need to take things a bit easier & relax a bit more. I just hope it is not too sluggish. I have also been watching some of the Youtube videos on driving techniques & found them quite interesting.

    I am glad you both like the IS 300h, that is very reassuring. I don't take a lot of notice of motoring journalists, they criticised the V40 from the start, but I owned it for 5 years & really liked it. Another probably stupid question to you guys, but, when do you you use the foot/handbrake? At traffic lights, on hills or just when parking?

    My Volvo is a manual, the only auto I have really driven any distance was a golf plus in the South of France. I had it for 2 weeks & drove about 2,000km, I quite liked it. I am hoping I enjoy the CVT as much.

    Thanks very much for the quick reply Mincey. I am hoping I like the IS 300H when I get there Saturday, I have never driven one. I was supposed to before we went into lockdown, but it was then cancelled. I have to travel about 170 miles to pick it up, so I should have a good drive home fingers crossed. I am hoping it is as good as my Volvo V40 D4 or better, although I know it is a slower car. How are you enjoying your IS? Is there anything you do not like about it, how do you find the power/performance?

    Hi everyone I have said hello in the new members forum. I have owned a Volvo V40 D4 for the last 5 years, it has been a great car, but I fancied something a bit different. My Volvo had a speed camera alerts on it & I was just wondering if anyone knows if the 2020 version of the IS 300H has this as well, I have looked but cannot find any information on it? Many thanks Steve.

    Hi Everybody, I pick up my new IS 300H on Saturday & I am really looking forward to it, I have always liked the IS models & decided now is the time. I have owned Volvo's for the last 10 years, so this is something a bit different.
