I have also been looking at these - even though I have read all of the magazine reviews and none are particularly complimentary! Why do I still find them interesting? Well, I like Volvos, I've had a few mainly boring ones but I like the seats and the (lack of) image. I need something that will take two spaniels in a pen in the boot - it ticks that box (although boot isnt great). I dont do many miles - station car and train in the week so its a weekend car for doing the necessary journeys with a bit of fun. I like the look and I like the AWD.

And its not a grey / black / white 3 series / A4 / C Class..... I do think the biggest enemy to the big 3 german manufacturers is themselves - they are just getting too popular...

But a 340i Touring is still the best available alternative....
