So I finally picked her up yesterday and had a pleasant drive up to Brum with it. It's definitely quieter than the Inscription I test drove, but I expected it to be with the smaller 19" wheels.

I'm a little underwhelmed with the air, but this is down to my gold-fish like memory of what non-air feels like - the ride was not as bumpy as my S60 and the broken surfaces much less noticeable....I'll report more on this (if I remember!)

The finish is in pine grey with the maroon interior and I've stuck some pics here, both if which I'm happy to have gone with.

I've got her booked in for a beauty treatment next week, so will stick some better pics up after that.

Congrats and happy motoring...I really like the chocolate coloured seats.

If I had the time to factory order it would be with that leather but with the Maple Brown exterior I think. This is the first peek at the leather. Very nice combination you've chosen.
I've got Savile Grey with charcoal, which is fine and was in stock with the dealer.

Fellow Pine Grey owner, apparently mine was the first over here according to my dealer...I'll take that with a large pinch!

Hello! Thanks a lot for posting this. I'm currently in the process of ordering my XC90, and this was exactly my choice of colours.

I'm having a very hard time finding a Pine Grey/Maroon Volvo in person, so any pictures are helpful.

Would you happen to have some pictures where one could see the maroon seats and the pine grey at the same time, and in direct sunlight preferably? I like those colours separately, but I'm not sure how they would look when put next to each other.

I thought I took more picks, but looks like it was just the (poor) one. It's in the link above.

I'll be picking the car up on Thursday so will be able to take some more in the weekend - although the detailer may email some once he has finished in the next day or two.
