It's pretty descent. My neighbour has one with the new 3.2 engine - refined, quiet and smooth on the highway. We used it to haul my new garden furniture - heaps of space ! - I liked it.

It's a safe buy.

I second that...however interior quality is so, so and the V8 is not actually Volvo - it's Yamaha!

Yep, that's why it sounds so nice! Reminds me of a young(er) mr Narvselius dreaming about a Yamaha RD 125 LC in the 80's...

The XC90 is typical Volvo; sensible, practical, fair enough of quality feel and relatively low on maintance costs. Nice seats and pretty comfortable to drive.
