• Honest John’s Motoring Agony Column 09-06-2018 Part 2 11 Jun 2018 (Forum)
  All this stuff about Volvo promoting that 'no-one in the UK has ever been killed in an XC90' is just their attempt to cover off the publicity around Uber using an XC90 during their autonomous vehicle trials in America and killing the cyclist. I'm confident in your mantras on most things, but I'm
• Volvo XC90 (2002 - ) - 05 2.4 Superchips? 2 Jul 2008 (Forum)
  Right, I am about to by an XC90 D5. I was going to purchase the 2005 model as it's a little cheaper. However I understand that from '06 onwards a better D5 engine was used (185bhp). I hear that this got rid of the delay through the engine/transmission that can sometimes develop under harsh

• The Top Gear Thread - Vol 13 12 Dec 2004 (Forum)
  A firm assertion on Top Gear tonight was that the story of Keith Moon driving a RR in a swimming pool was an urban myth. I hate to think that this act of rock 'n roll legend didn't happen. Inside knowledge, anyone? (By the way, credit to Clarkson for saying that the XC90 was a better family car
