V90 xc t5

Well, wow! I have got one for the day and what a lovely, lovely car it is.

The interior is just spot on, I cant think of a complaint.

Ride is lovely, sound system (B&W) is :hehe: Looks great IMO. Quality all around is top notch.

Im driving the T5 AWD auto. The engine is perhaps a little harsh at higher revs (4 cyl), but thats about the only thing I can level at it at the moment.

Volvo are more than taking it to the Germans with this. If anyones got questions its on my driveway for the next 8hrs, ill be happy to go and find out anything specific

Is that Osmium grey?

Its lovely. Buyer beware of colour and trim options though. Some colours show up the grey plastic wheel arches and lower body very badly. This particular colour suits it well though. I've seen it in white and it does not look good.

At extra cost you can have the grey plastic replaced by body colour trim, but only on selected colours at extra cost. I really fancied the Maple Brown with the same lower trim colour and the light tan seats when I built a virtual one on the website.

That yellow front number plate really spoils the look as well....

Agree re the grey plastic wheel arch covers. Nasty with the wrong colour combo...
