Hello,
Normally, I'd not be in a position to either buy a new car or to step into the Volvo realm of things. But I find that I may be in a position to get a new XC90 at a significant discount over the next three months or so. So, now I'm thinking about it.
I presume that this would be a 2004 model (as opposed to a 2005 model). I'd be looking at a T6 with a few amenities (third row, moon roof, DVD navigator, leather, etc).
I've got one toddler and hope to give her a brother/sister within a year or so, so I'm thinking that the third row investment would be useful.
But, overall, I'm worried about some of the quality issues I've read about. I'm not super concerned, since I expect that I'd work a lot of these out across the four year warranty, and the lower purchase price would make me more tolerant of the time in the shop, if necessary. But, of course, I'd rather not have it there at all.
Bottom line. Is this car really borderline non-functional, as some reviews would have you think? Is there anyone out there who's hade virtually no problem?
Any other issues? Cautions?
Thanks,
Todd
