XC90, common as muck...
 
:)

So, from SE London where mk2 xc90's are few and far between to the Cambs/Lincs border where new xc90's are literally everywhere. I'm seeing about 12 or so every journey to kids school and back.

Seem to be far more popular, so much so that I don't feel special driving it anymore lol

I should have taken a picture, was a 4 way xc90 fest in the school car park, two mk1's and 2 mk2's, all of us parked dreadfully :)

I must however follow up with I've never been so happy to have a car with awesome headlights and is a tank on some of these dodgy back roads, especially with my winters on and the mucky weather this week...

I have only seen one new XC60 on the road since I got mine in September.

So quite exclusive at the moment.

Not that this will last long though.

I saw my first new XC60 (other than my own) in December in Hexham. Then blow me! I have seen two this week, both metallic red, definitely not the same car twice either, one had a notable personalised plate and the other a plain 67.

At least my exclusivity lasted a couple of months.

Metallic red does seem to be the new black.....

We should arrange a new XC60 meet.
