Hi Fories, Blondchen wants to buy a new car and fluctuates extremely between the X5 (incarnate BMW driver) and the XC 90 (which I find optically simply hornier than the BMW – ash on my head :-). I hope you can help me. I had a brief look at the Tuareg – but only heard negatives. Now I wanted to hear from you “insiders” about how satisfied you are with the reliability of your XC 90s. Is there anything special I have to pay attention to, we If I buy a used XC 90 (thinking of a 2-3 year old car…). Does he have any child’s illnesses??What is the Servie of the workshops??? Had found out at the Tuareg that VW can’t really handle the high price segment and with a broken rain sensor at VW with “that’s what they have to live with……to be fed.” So and now go and praise the car or scold it *grins* I wait eagerly for reactions… lg from the “swab-like” Tanja
