Volvo XC90 D5 SE Manual (V50 for sale)

[ginge191]

Handling pretty good, covers ground better than any other car i've owned. Its a Volvo so interior is solid, simple but well thought out.
T5's are 230hp, map easily and a lot of aftermarket tuning parts available. Its a Focus so 99% is interchangeable.
On the forums I think the general gist is to expect 25-35mpg. Not many things go wrong, the odd sensor here and there. You made need to upgrade the clutch if you'll want big power.

Are you on the IOW? Welcome to come and have a drive of mine.

You're on the island also? 

Thanks for the input; but yes, looking at upgrading to about 290-300bhp, any more is probably too much for round here and block work starts to come into question.

Just doing some reading around them now and their pro's and cons
