XC90 T6 - What to look out for on test drive

[968CSReading]

Hoping to test drive one of these (2003, 56K) at the weekend. Ive not driven one before so any pointers on things to look out for?

Its had the bearings done and no issues with gearbox (so they say)

Hoping to try and get a test in another this week to compare.

Also, anyone know of Volvo specialists in the Harrogate area who would carry out an inspection? Would an RAC or AA inspection be worth it if not?

Didnt go to see that T6 in the end but drove one at a dealer yesterday.

Very impressive and a nice car but the 15mpg makes my RX8 look economical. a drive of a D5 will be next.

Yes have read that they are underpowered. The T6 prices are dropping still so Im still temepted to get one and convert it to LPG.

There are some nice 2.5T examples around £15K too.

Ouch

We decided to buy this instead. Only a year old and should be a lot cheaper to run.
