Hi all we currently have a Volvo V70 and love it but i have spotted a nice XC90 2.4 diesel for a reasonable price. Does anyone here have experience with this as a tow car. Do the have enough power ect?

 

Thanks in Advance

    the xc90 has won numerous towcar awards over the years, what you need to ask the dealer is,  is about the service history and has it been used for towing as could require gearbox service also and not cheap. remember it's 8 years old.
