In my search for what I could replace my Forester STi with in the future, I've suddenly come across the V60 T6 [not the new one, the one before].

I really like the full-on Polestar but they will continue to be out of my price range for a while...but didn't realise it's got a 'little brother'!

I'm guessing they are rare as hell but are they worth hunting down?

The list of potential petrol estate cars, with a bit of performance, that don't cost as much to run as a Merc C63 estate is pretty slim. So I think I need to find out more about the V60...compared to other fast[ish] estates like the Seat Cupra ST and Skoda Octavia VRS.

The full fat polestar are not much more to run than a regular V60 estate, with the exception of front brakes and tyres

The reason they are so expensive is they are rare especially the 3.0 version

Depending on what your budget is mine is going up for sale soon and you may be surprised at how much less it is then the current crop for sale at the dealers.

The standard T6 is lovely car to drive, however they are thirsty in town !

Hey mate, just realised you posted on my thread (I gave up looking as it seemed no one wanted to talk V60 T6)!

I imagine your Polestar would still a bit above my budget, though do PM me with some details just in case.

Just brought a 3l one. It's an absolutely brilliant car. Wife's daily driver but can get a proper shift on when needed to. Has full ohlins suspension brembo brakes. But looks a proper sleeper. It's a keeper
