Looks like a real head turner. Stands out amongst the million shades of grey on offer for most manufacturers.

Thanks! Certainly enough power behind the wheel - while I know comparatively it may slightly lag behind a 3-series on a similar engine, it's plenty fast!!! The T6 must be a bit crazy.

Cruises nicely, and just generally a pleasant place to be. Not had a saloon for a while, but is doing the job!

Black trim looks real good against the red!

You think? I was a bit mixed as have satin trim on our bursting blue R-Design XC90 and sets it off well. Maybe it's too common to have silver trim again. The industry seems to switch every 5-10 years as to which is premium and which is standard Chrome used to be an upgrade. Then we went into "dechroming" as a concept. Then satin was premium. Now gloss black is premium

Still have had it a few days now, the black on red is growing on me.

As much as I love how satin silver RD trim contrasts the Osmium Gray on my XC60 - the piano black does the same for Fusion Red! I may be subjective- but I wouldn't change a thing about your car!
