Thank you ARchitects. It is a 3.2. Sorry, I had also posted a question under the XC 90 forum and had that information. I must have forgotten to add it here. Yes, pictures are soon to come

Hi XC90fan.
Congrats on your dream car. Love the XC90`s would like to upgrade to one some day.
I also recently joined the froum.
Have 2002 S60T5 in Vancouver area; my first Volvo had it for just over two years now.
Love it "despite lot of little small problems."

Hi Arek welcome to the forum! Thanks! I love my xc90! It brings a new meaning to everyday driving when you are in your dream vehicle prior to this my vehicle history from the beginning: 1981 ford f250 reg cab long box 4X4, 1986 ford bronco full size 4X4, 1994 GMC extended cab short box 4X4, 2003 dodge sx 2.0 sport and finally my XC90!!
You have a nice ride I like the looks of the s60's. What color is it? Mine is black.
Sorry to hear about your lots of little small problems, that sucks, but it'll be worth it all in the end once it's all fixed
