I've got an XC60 now which is essentially a P3 XC70 on stilts - the only reason I've got it is a really like the Sensus system and a DAB radio which you couldn't get on the old XC90.. oh and the double blow D5....

Very true. I do like the XC70 and it's like everything I suppose, when I had the P2 V70 and was parked alongside a P3 XC70 one day I couldn't believe the size diffence and thought to myself, one day I'd like one of those,now that I have one even though I like it there's something appealing to me about the XC90's. I've always liked jeeps, and I've driven the XC90 and one thing I do remember well about it is there was a nice driving position in it. It drove more like a car than an SUV.
