A couple of observations, though.
Although they are the same marque and have very similar interior design, the V70 felt much more solid on the inside, just, well, better built.
And, but in fairness I was warned, the XC90 is much noisier, especially when dragging the van up steep inclines.
Having said that, lovely to drive, very sure footed and, if it proves reliable, a good choice of car!

Really pleased that it seems to have worked out for you. I'm surprised you find the build quality not up to V70 spec, I always viewed them as similar.
I'm not surprised you mentioned the noise... quite curious as to why it's more noisy, and something it was often criticised for in the day.
