Description
This is my family car, being sold only due to the London ULEZ.
What sets this XC90 MK1 apart from the others is the bird's-eye parking camera. I added it myself, and it's a total game-changer for parking perfectly in regular car parks. It also functions as a dashcam, recording around an hour of continuous footage from all four cameras.
For your mobile phone, it has a hands-free Parrot system that automatically connects via Bluetooth whenever you're in the car.
It also comes with a towbar and a 7-pin plug, which I used for a bike rack.
One big plus: road tax. XC90 MK1s fall into two tax bands, with about a 300GBP difference between them. This particular XC90 is in the cheaper band.
The air conditioning is ice cold. I measured it recently at 11C (on one of the recent sunny days when it was 25+ outside).
Space saver spare wheel (used once, very handy at the time)
With all seats up, there are three rows (7 seats in total, including the driver).
Other features (factory fitted):
- Cruise Control
- Parking Sensors (not really needed with the 3D camera, but useful for close objects)
- Alloy Wheels
To note:
- Some minor scratches and bumps on the exterior (see pictures)
- Some cracking in the faux-leather seats (see pictures)
- I live just inside the ULEZ, so if you're driving to view it in a non-ULEZ-compliant car, please bear that in mind
