Question XC90 SE Lux – Registration No. 59

I have decided to sell my nearly new Volvo XC90 SE Lux because my wife is not keen on the drive of this luxurious suv. We used to own a 3 series touring but now looking to replace our xc90 for a good specification 5 series estate (prefer petrol) so I will consider an exchange.

Volvo XC90 SE LUX Manual
Registered date 19 September 2009
Current mileage 3100 miles ** (see below)
Metallic silver with black sovereign hide leather

Extras are:
Passenger air bag cut off switch
Rear tinted glass
Spare wheel
Front parking assistance
Rubber floor mats and boot mat (including the luxury mats)
3 year free servicing pack

The car is still immaculate and smells new. It was prepared using autoglym high defitnion wax and supaguard applied to the alloy wheels.

Anyone interested?

(No silly offers please and I need to cover the cost of replacing it with a 5 series estate)

** Driven at varying rpms and speeds until about 1000 miles. After the 1000 miles it was driven normally (inc. long trips to Lakes and Cornwall) and always making sure to let the engine get up to normal operating temps. No heavy load put on the engine so the engine should break-in smoothly and the ‘symphony’ has already started to change slightly.

The car is provisionally sold to a trader who has a buyer lined up (collection this weekend) unless someone can offer more than £33.5k and I will be taking ownership of my new car. If you're seriously interested in my car the funds will have to clear on Friday 27th so that I do not lose my sale this weekend.

To all potdential Volvo XC90 owners – I have owned this car for two months switching brand from a BMW estate and travelled around the UK with my 2 toddlers and a full boot to make good use. I would suggest that XC90 is a completely different drive i.e. drives like a commercial van although in a luxurious environment and unless you will make regular use of the boot space or 7 seater please do not make the same mistake as myself and be prepared for a different type of driving feel.

I did a lot of research on this car before making the plunge and drove it extensively at Volvo freedom weekends plus test drives for the whole day but you don't realise the size of this car or the driving feel until you start using it on a regular basis. I don't want anyone to make a similar mistake to myself.
