Sad update: I'm probably going to be putting her up for sale. No fault on her part, I'm just finding it uncomfortable to drive....Comfort has always been my only gripe and I'm finding it worse as time goes on, to the extent that any long trips we are taking my OHs S60 D5 (my old car) instead of the ...

Wow a long time since last update is always the sign of a good reliable car. 3 years together now and still very much smitten with this car, a few pics taken since last update: Snow is always a welcome sight http://i461.photobucket.com/albums/qq338/y2blade2/2014-07/10959624_503779069759792_478771883...

Took some "dirty girl" pics at the weekend, hopefully they make up for the last pic I posted :D http://i461.photobucket.com/albums/qq338/y2blade2/2014-07/496436FF-1FB4-4194-84AF-6A5FF19A17F9_zps5jgdslit.jpg http://i461.photobucket.com/albums/qq338/y2blade2/2014-07/A83CF36B-CF62-4052-AE1B-833F9D6B8DD...

NOT A VERY EXCITING UPDATE: The XC90 went to new home two weeks ago so have been commuting in the S4 (while I look for a V8 to commute in), noticed towards the end of last week that the keyfob was only working when you are very close to the car, ordered some new batteries...... http://i461.photobuck...

Two years together now, has been an absolute pleasure to drive, run and own. She is no longer my daily driver, the XC90 T6 has taking the commuting duties off her. Not much to report since last post tbh, MOT went well...She is still not using ANY oil at all between services (every 5-6k iirc), no boo...

Thanks, she is "Ming Blue".

Took this one on the way home from work last night.

Update: My local roads are now flood free and repaired So I got my baby out to stretch her legs, after three months in the XC90 she reminded me how good she is. http://i461.photobucket.com/albums/qq338/y2blade2/Album002/CFC416DA-B338-4444-9A31-E6A034BAA439_zps4migdpvi.jpg http://i461.photobucket.com...

Fired her up this morning and took her out along the hilltop, kept away from the flooded valley roads, got her nice & warm and cleaned the surface rust off the discs. She felt great really strong, lovely noise....I'd not driven her apart from in and out the garage to wash in about 4-6 weeks. She soo...

lol I just found the pics from when I washed/polished her prior to hiding her from the flood water. Before: http://i461.photobucket.com/albums/qq338/y2blade2/Album002/3494C781-56D5-4EB6-9975-61CFC2ABA749_zpszts5zijt.jpg . . . . . . After about 4hrs: http://i461.photobucket.com/albums/qq338/y2blade2/...

Still nothing to report, still a lot of flood water along the valley here so she's tucked away polished and fully cleaned inside and out in my garage with an optimate looking after her. Hence my commuting duties are shared between S60 and XC90 depending what vehicle type MissB needs to use of differ...

Update: Had the Passenger side rear wheel bearing fail all of a sudden on way to work yesterday morning, it had been running silent from all four corners then yesterday morning a slight hmmmmmmm that literally 5miles later became a more prominent wurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr that came and went as I loade...

Update: 11500miles/14months together.

Not much to report tbh.
Truly faultless, has been an absolute please to own and drive.

She's a little dirty right now........
