Hello all,

Hope you don’t mind me inviting comment on the following.. Looking at used XC90s due to growing family. You certainly get a lot of car for your money.

At around the £8-9k mark, there are lowish mileage (eg 80-110k miles) cars pre 2006, and much higher mileage (150k plus) cars that are much newer, up to about 2011.

And of course anything in between. What would you go for, and what are the considerations?

Do XC90s reach 200k miles if they are well maintained?

I have read the Practical Caravan and Carbuyer buyers’ guides.

At the moment my heuristic is probably something like - go for a car at around 120-140k miles and get the highest spec / newest available. Avoid tow cars.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

Matt
