New XC90 feedback

[Jem0911]

Any New shape 15-16-17 Owners have any feedback on the Diesel XC90
I was impressed in the showroom of the feel and look of the car.
I would have it for three years and 150000 miles.

My other option is the X5

I had the car all of Saturday on Demo.

I was really really impressed.

The Tech was great and the feel, design and finish was excellent.
The boot was monstrous.

I think more importantly for me its seat was way better than the X5.
As my 5 series has near crippled me I need a good seat.

Down to working out the money and tax liability now.
It looks around thirty quid a month more expensive and slightly less on the mileage allowance as I need 50K a year.

Have had to reduce the Car value to £40K so its back to the drawing board for me.
Probably a Disco Sport in some guise.

Can you not buy lightly used?

The Disco Sport is a different class of car. Much smaller (though 5 up it's fine) and cheaper feeling (as I suspect I may have upset some on the Land Rover section about - off to check now ).

Oh, and a spec'd up Disco Sport isn't a cheap car!

No I've had a CAP limit of £40k.
Work are very good to me so I am towing the line on this one.

The DS will do great.
I tested one for a day my only worry was the MPG but stories on forums are showing better figures now.

Probably more capable off road which is a bonus as my hobby takes me where a decent off road car is best.
