I like my Osmium grey, but sometimes think its a little boring, and wish the front grill stood out a little more against it. Like the car in black, but living in a rural area with some very agricultural roads on the school run, it would always look dirty. Will consider black again next time, or Saville grey (as a yorkshire man I just wish they would rename the colour). Would also love Bursting blue if I went for R Design, but wife's not at all keen.

:wq

I'm taking a chance on the pine grey....it was Onyx black until I just bought a Mercedes E63 AMG in Obsidian black and we felt our home may look like an undertakers!

Same here - I've gone for the pine grey as well. As John will be getting his well before mine, I'll let him be the guinea pig and post some pics and his opinion!

Unfortunately "colour" is a bit of a misnomer on the XC90. Aside from the R- Design it´s more like "shades of grey".
I saw samples of the pine grey and denim blue yesterday. Pine seems basically a very dark green. Not my colour. The denim a dark blue but somehow a bit off. I would need to see it on an actual car before choosing it.
I went with the osmium grey. My colleague has it with all blond interior and it looks good. (I will have black interior - I´m too much of a car slob for bright seat covers...)

But I am still kind of dreaming of bursting blue with the black momentum grill, amber leather and walnut wood....

Black with Amber does sound distinctive.......could do with seeing some pictures

Blond interior with either the darker gloss wood or walnut all the way.

It's a practical minefield (we have 2x under 5 boys!). But it looks so much more special than the other colours.

Unusual color for me but I am very happy with the bronze

My wife's V40 R-Design is Rebel Blue and it looks awesome. Wonder what that would look like on an XC90.........

I have got the bronze on my present XC60. I like it and it is a very forgiving colour. I´ll be visiting the car wash much more frequent with the osmium but I wanted a change.
