Thanks Roy. Luckily the XC90 came with 2 keys, the V70 I sold only had 1.

On your recommendations I'm certainly going to look at Charlwood for my next service; they're only around 40 minutes away.

Well Jim I put a deposit down on a XC90 sport yesterday with full service history and all the bells and whistles (56 plate 22nd Nov) Its very clean indeed one owner Sapphire black, Vulcan wheels etc. well you know the deal. It had its last service by Volvo 300miles ago!

Oh and yes 2 keys!

Good stuff. Welcome to the club! I'm sure you'll be very happy with it, I seem to appreciate mine more and more everyday.

Hi folks,

I joined this forum to gain an insight into my next purchase, which will be the XC90. I have a budget of around 9K looking at the D5 SE and ones I have seen on autotrader have been less than 100k miles on an 04/05-reg or older.

Any advice as to what I should be looking out for?
Do I stretch to the slightly newer facelift model 56-reg and newer (with higher mileage) and what about those examples that are slightly higher mileages?

Thanks,
Stuart
