An update to this thread...

I part-ex'd the car. Had served my family well (was my Dad's car first and he owned from 6 months old) and I owned for the last two years +.

I decided to get something newer. So I now drive a 65 plate Seat Leon Sport Tourer (Estate) FR 2.0 TDI 184ps manual. Some nice toys. LED Matrix headlights. Apple CarPlay. Smaller. Lighter. Cheaper on fuel. Same range, but smaller tank. Handles really well. Sports suspension.

But not as premium feeling, as well screwed together as the Volvo and smaller. One of the last jobs I did with the Volvo was to pop out and buy a Fridge Freezer, which fitted effortlessly in the back. Then took the old one to the tip the following day.

Got a set of spare wheels that I will put up for sale shortly, thanks for everyone's comments, great forum, never know might be back in a Volvo one day.
