I've ordered a brand spanking new Electric Silver/Off-Black XC70 3.2. I'm told to expect delivery next weekend as it needs to be transported from Victoria to New South Wales. It's a 2009 build vehicle. It replaces a 1999 Lexus ES that, whilst still perfect, is not safe or pratical enough for our coming new family.
I've not gone for the LE pack because, apart from the auto tailgate, it provided no features that I considered worth paying an extra $6k for.
I haven't elected to fit any options, but I am considering:
1. the nylon cargo barrier;
2. a rubber tray for the boot;
3. the cargo organiser system thing;
4. the side net;
5. a tow kit.
I've got a limited budget, so I can't have all of the above at the moment. I'm leaning towards getting the cargo barrier and the side net.
I also saw that in England you can order a side blind for the rear seat [important for my baby who is arriving in this world shortly]. So I'm going to try and source this.
I considered the Volvo Portable Navigation, but figure it is much more cost effective to get a Garmin or TomTom from an electronics store.
Anyway, I shall provide some pictures upon it's arrival.
I look forward to joining some of you Sydney guys off the beaten track.
