Osmium Gray (Grey?). Looks a bit dull here because of the weather, but I like it a lot. A head turner, if clean

Ha! Just shows how a photo can deceive, I've had an Osmium Grey XC90 for 2.5 years and never even thought yours was the same colour!!! Looks a lot darker!

Good choice!!

Looking good. I travel to Krakow now and again and don't see that many Volvos on the road. Are they any more popular in Warsaw?

Apparently grey is the new number one colour for new cars in the U.K.

nah... You can see a lot of XC60, XC90 maybe. But S90 is not that popular I guess A6 or Merc E is more popular in the sedan segment.

But on the other hand, more people stare at S90 on the street

haha. I was going to write something like "Why would you like to have only 2 winter tires!?"

I guess I need to catch up with some threads here

yeah, a photo from mobile can be misleading. It looks different in different lighting conditions:

Absolutely, looks completely different in that light and I would know immediately that it was Osmium!

Champagne is class. Wish that would be a thing over here in the UK.

I had to collect my car from Sunderland and all I got was a MIL keyring. Very nice but not on the same level as the customer service in Poland sadly.

Enjoy.....
