Silver or Oyster Grey?

We have ordered a xc90 active... only question left... Silver or Oyters grey?

Saville gery looks awesome!

I have an Oyster Grey one, and am delighted with it. We had not seen the colour in the flesh prior to ordering, but wanted a colour that was different to the others in our area.
Most of the others locally are silver or black.

Exactly my thinking. Also, I saw one XC90 the other day and loved the colour... I think it was Oyter Grey but hard to know... should have the stopped the driver!

Any chance to get some pictures of yours?

Please can you post a picture of an actual XC90 in Oyster Grey. I have a new Active ordered for February delivery and have soo far opted for Saville grey but could be tempted to change ...

Hopefully this will work.

I thought about Oyster but went for silver. Just been on holiday and saw an oyster and I made the right choice. I was at first not sure about silver and its so common now. But I think it suites the XC. I actually would have preferred the black bumper stripes rather than the matched colour

Its always going to be a personal preference though....

Thanx for the posted picture, we have just ordered a d5 geartronic Active in Oyster Grey for March delivery on the Motorbility scheme, but couldn't really get a proper idea as to how this colour would look, there should be a system at the Volvo dealerships to show the colours on the cars people are choosing. Shouldn't be too hard to sort out a bit of software to do it ! ! !
