I'm looking to change and there's a local Volvo dealer with a couple of 12 mth old V90 Ultra T8 plug-in hybrids for about £38k with average mileage.

Seems an awful lot of car for the money, AWD, B&W sound, rear air suspension, HUD, etc, etc and decent turn of speed if needed.

They look big, comfy, quite stylish inside, plenty of room in the back and a bit under the radar.

Use case is about 15-18k miles a year, need AWD due to location, ferry a couple of quiet elderly parents a few times a week, road trips to Europe twice a year. Don't do many short journeys, mostly 20+ miles. Not too fussed about fuel economy. I'm coming from a Lexus RX450 - lovely car but a bit quirky and insurance is astronomical cos its a 2020 and has the weak CAN bus security.

Am I missing something? Anyone with real world experience of nearly new V90's? Cheers!
