I purchased my factory ordered V90 in June of 2020. The following is a recap of my 5 years of ownership experience. My current mileage is 49467.

5 year cost to own:
$ 1051 Routine service not covered under factory warranty* $ 3273 Parts (e.g., tires, metal engine skid plate, PPF, etc) $ 6956 Gas (mostly Costco 93 octane) $ 5500 Car insurance

$ 46559 Total estimate 5 year cost-to-own
$ 0.9412/mile Estimated cost per mile after 49467 miles and 5 years
* While the factory recommendation for oil change service is every 12 months or 10K miles, I averaged every 5-to-6 months and 6K or so miles.
26.40 mpg overall (avg around 23-25 city and 30-32 highway)

The numbers are what they are. With the above said, after 5 years of use, when I park at a parking lot or local park, I still get the occasional person who stops by to ask questions about my car or complement it. Just happened again yesterday.
2019 V90 Inscription, same experience in parking lots. I'm looking for factory service manual, 2 liter T5. Hopefully pdf or online. Want to start doing simple maintenance myself. YouTube is great substitute right now.
