Have you any experience of the V60's ride quality?

Have you any experience of the Volvo V60 D4 SE? I understand that the ride quality is poor on the standard dynamic chassis currently offered by Volvo and that there is no alternative available in the UK? Shame as it looks to be a very economical to run car.

Ran an S60 D4 for 8 months on the 17" wheels and 50 profile tyres. Not as good as the Mazda 6 on 17s with 55 profile tyres, but still very comfortable with excellent, fully adjustable seats: www.honestjohn.co.uk/our-cars/volvo-s60/ Got 61mpg.
