Wow….
Never in my lifetime did I think I would hear an ex Range Rover owner tell us his Volvo wasn’t refined enough, well built enough or reliable enough! Range Rovers are shockingly built, massively unreliable and come bottom or near bottom of just about every single used car survey out there. I’ve owned one Range Rover in my life and will never own another, it was utter rubbish. My Volvo is twice the car the Range Rover was and I will happily stick with Volvo from now on, this car is so good in every way. |

I think he's deluded and is just here to moan. I've got a few friends with Range Rovers, they're overpriced crap to be honest, constantly in the garage.

No I'm here to learn about the car I drive. I've done something like a million miles in Range Rovers - had loads of them over a 20 year period - never been stranded by one (or by a Jag since the 1980s) but have suffered niggly issues with some of them. But they're joyous things to drive with wonderful refinement unlike my hum-drum bone-shaking XC90. Which I keep saying is a perfectly nice car but boring and a bit cheap feeling despite costing over 70 grand new.

This is what happens when people listen to the motoring media too much, I ran Vauxhalls for a long long time but the MM said I shouldn't, I always ended up with a car that didn't cost too much and hardly ever saw a ramp, granted they do have their weak points like the M32 gearbox and they do like a bit more juice than some others but I never had one that needed as much oil as diesel between services like that premium brand VW offering I had, nor did I ever have one shoot a turbo at 50k or need special oil as such, for 30 years I got it so wrong I only wish I'd listened to the motoring media. FWIW I agree that even 70k for an XC90 is horrific let alone near 100k but as usual if they will pay it they will charge it. |

It has quite a few optional extras, but is most definitely not a Pro. I can’t say it has ever worried me, so I have never bothered doing anything about it.

Just ignore him, I do, he’s only joined to main and tell us how crap Volvo cars are and how not being able to drive like a muppet around the country at more than 112mph is travesty.

In fact, reading this thread I'm not sure what I've got. I've got stitching into the top of the dash and door trim, on call, rear camera, heated steering wheel. I don't think I've got all the fancy light things and have 18s .... Hmmm ah well. I will get some 20s at some point and now that I've got the Android auto, dashcam, and polestar from my dealer whilst still paying the lower tax, I'm happy...
