I don’t have one but would have had one if not for all 90 series apart from XC having such shallow bodies that make it very difficult for many people to exit.
If you fit, I reckon it’s a fantastic car. The spec of the individual car makes a difference of course.

Love it. Comfortable, safe, luxurious, lots of tech, capable off road, relatively rare (or unpopular!).

Minor gripe about the lacklustre noise from the engine under load, but still plenty enough real world power.

I have a D4 CC PRO. Great car. Recently did the Polestar upgrade as the gearbox was annoying in Standard form.

Just changed its tyres from the STD 235/50/19 to the XC60 size of 235/55/19 made a good difference on driving. As has been said good in slippy conditions and when 4x4 is needed pretty good.

With all the reports of the Power Pulse pipes failing (plenty of thread discussions), I'd be wary of the D5 regardless of model.

Its a pipe! It doesn’t disable the car if it bursts. It will be sorted. I’ve had one failure and that wasn’t repaired correctly. No big deal. The system generally works very well indeed and is an inspired design feature.

Be careful... wary on those D5. Go to the D4 and then install Polestar engineered optimisation
