My car isn't restricted I bought a MY2018 on purpose, I also bought it because it's the only 7 seater SUV that still has luggage space with the extra row of seats up.
The other half's Lexus is an okay car - boring but metronomically reliable. The CVT isn't at all intrusive as the car has enough torque to mean you're not really revving much in normal driving, I agree CVTs on smaller-engined cars are horrible. But one thing to say about RX CVTs they are bullet-proof.

I believe there is a 7 seater RX now but it's not fast enough, if I didn't need a seven seater I would have kept my lovely supercharged V8 Range Rover. The XC90 is a perfectly decent car, but for the price it's not refined enough, it's not particularly well built and doesn't have a reputation for reliability. It is fast and efficient - easily it's best points rather ruined 2019 onwards by the 112mph limiter.
