35-44 group, we seem to be leading the pack.

I'm a little sceptical about the 17-24 group, who can afford an XC60 at that age let alone the insurance?

I moved from a BMW to the XC60 and when I told my mates I was buying a Volvo they didn't believe I was 29, more like 59.

Times are a changing as when they saw my new car they didn't even think it was a Volvo.

Nearer 60 this year than 50, I'm afraid to say, just one good thing about old age, cheaper insurance

I bought my first Volvo at aged 36 so fitting the most populous band. Last week's delivery of the XC60 was my 7th at age 62 so in one of the later bands.

V70 at age 38 and just ordered an XC60 at age 40.......

Can't see me moving away from the brand other than for a weekend toy when free time and funds allow (when the kids have grown up and left home!!)

That said the wife has a Mzxda 3 MPS if I want something with plenty of ooomph and that handles :-)
