  • Volvo XC90 or new Peugeot 5008SUV - Which large SUV 18 Jan 2017 (Forum)
    Budget around £25k- I would pay the tax on its original list price. I really like the look of the Volvo XC90 and have heard very good reports; I could get a used one. New, I like the look of the Peugeot 5008 SUV due out this spring. Interested in opinions regarding which would be a better bet. Is it risky to buy a new model that hasn't been tried a great deal?

  • New car delivery times - delays 8 May 2004 (Forum)
    For those fortunate enough to be buying a new car, what are typical delays for a new car built to order, ie not in stock at a dealer? I'm a bit puzzled for instance that for a Volvo XC90, local dealer is quoting about 9 months yet Autocar, What Car and Auto Express all have one as a long-term test vehicle, and Volvo are still avertising the XC90 quite heavily. Same sort of position with BMW X5, dealer again quoting about 9 months for delivery but there is extensive advertising....and should the marketing bods responsible for these cars get the chop for getting the production versus sales demand figures so far out?
