Have a look at this post http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showpo...8&postcount=38

I wanted a tow car with 90kg limit and bought an XC60 D5 205 manual registered in Jun'09.
For short while I thought I'd blown it and got the wrong one but more by luck than planning it turned out to be a model year 2010 (the 205 engine was introduced in model year 2010).Breaths sigh of relief!

Now need a tow bar fitting and warm weather!

Thumbs up cold weather caravaning

hey robwatson,you should use the van all year,it is great in the winter,leave the heating on low go for walk with dog(if you have one)back to a cosy van for brekkers,we had a christmas away a few years ago,great time with friends put the awning up decked it out with tree etc.over winter months we usually find a site with shale so we can put the porch awning up,lay the awning carpet on a tarpaulin to keep the draughts out.
happy caravaning
