Good job, it looks like new.

Sorry to go off topic but It looks like you have Michelin CrossClimate on your car, and I wondered how you find them on the XC90?
I have always used winter and summer tyres but having read that the CC are excellent in winter conditions they are tempting but I am not sure if they are any good in the summer as most review say that all seasons are, to some degree, a trade-off.
Have you had these tyres long enough to say how they perform in hot weather, and if they increase the noise levels and fuel consumption? This would be of interest to me as I currently do lot of motorway miles in the summer months.
I would appreciate your thoughts and this thread has shamed me into cleaning my car!!

Thanks
