Default Turning circles, XC90 vs S60 (17" wheels)?

Hi All

My S60 D5 has served me well for nearly 100k miles, I had intended to get rid of it 6 months ago, but struggling to find a replacement vehicle. I want a bigger boot, AWD and a higher seating position. I had previously discounted an XC90 on cost, but can't find anything I like from other manufacturers e.g Land Rover, Korean, Japanese, so it's back to looking at XC90s.

One of issues with my S60 is the poor turning circle, the 17" wheels don't help. What is the turning circle like on an XC90?

The new one I test drove took a 2 Lane A road and a bus stop to compleat an U turn. About the same as my discovery.
XC90 doesnot have a big boot if used in 7 seat mode.
