Unfortunately it's not much of a review and it's on a Volvo club website.. hardly going to be unbiased.

Seeing as the title of the board is "Volvo Cars Press Releases" it does what it says on the tin. It publishes Volvo's press releases.

It's not a review though! xD

The back looks like a VAG as in Volkswagen Audi Group. Unfortunately one resembling a Skoda.

Does anybody else agree?

Not sure I fully agree, but I don't think it is pretty at the rear.

Yes we are a bit biased on this Forum!

Have they done away with the hi brake light? Cant see any evidence of one at top of rear screen.

An interesting new - left field - entrant for the E Segment, offering an alternative to the ubiquitous but superb 5 Series and E Class?

I don't especially like either front or rear light treatment, but the majority of current cars have ugly/blingy lights and a badge overload.

It is a car I'd consider (I dislike the cream interior though), and it'll do better in other markets - than the UK. However the new V90: Volvo may gain some customers with this car, but they'll lose some as well with that impractical sloping tailgate.
