Primarily used as a pretty people transporter and continental motorway muncher the Volvo XC90 has performed surprisingly well off road and as a work horse.
Volvo have always provided safety features and mod cons, such as heated seats, always on head lamps and that tank like invincible build quality that have endeared it as a marque to me since I first owned a Volvo 940 Estate (Station Wagon) back in 1992 but its credibility as an SUV puts the XC90 into unknown territory.
This car is like owning a space shuttle for all the controls it has and if you are a gadgeteer like me you will be pleased. The full comms factory package provides phone controls (where you put the sim in the dash and the radio becomes your phone/SMS scrolls on the instrument panel), 6 CD stacker at the front, 10 DVD stacker, screens and wireless head phones for the cargo (i.e. family) at the back, Europeean navigator (who is now called George)
