Happy Sunday my friends! And happy Mother's Day to the moms out there!

Your 241k mile XC90 looks fantastic inside and out! Clearly you take very good care of it. It is so easy for people to run out and buy something new and pretty but I appreciate and respect car owners who keep their older cars running, driving and looking great! Your XC90 is stunning!

The P2 is just a masterpiece, most beautiful SUV of all time no cap.

I have a 2007 Xc90 with the 3.2. I'm always glad to see other XC90 enthusiasts.

The design has aged so well!

How many other folks bought their V8 Volvo off this channel? 🙋‍♂️

I'm from Germany and last year, after a long search, I found an XC90 V8 as an R-Design. It only had 52K km (about 32K miles) on the speedometer and the V8 is an absolute rarity here... I previously drove an XC90 with the 3.2L engine for 2 years, but the 6 cylinder was too underpowered for this car. I'm totally happy with this upgrade and appreciate exactly the same characteristics of the superior V8 cruiser that you list here in the video. Thanks for the video and best wishes across the big pond ;)

Duke is back!! Nice to everything upgraded.

Just ticked 243k on my 05 V8... did a transmission flush and she feels great!

been waiting thank you hope to see more

Have also always liked the Volvo XC90. Stately/understated in looks at the same time ... Same with classic Volvo's of yesteryear - a class of their own !

I I'm from Europe and I have a xc90 2.4 D5 , such a comfortable car and easy to drive . It's a great car for my family , a lot of space when traveling

I've watched nearly all your XC90 videos and just 4 days ago I bought my own 2008 XC90 AWD V8 Sport. She (I haven't named her yet but I do know she's a she LOL) needs a little TLC but overall I'm loving it already! Your videos definitely made me keep an eye out for these vehicles and when this one popped up last week I had to go check her out. Keep up the great videos!

The car looks so beautiful and in such good shape! 👍

I've been subscribed since you had your last XC90 but for some reason I haven't seen any videos from you in my feed. I found this one because of your community post.

Been waiting for this update….let’s get in to it.

Looking good, Bern.

Nice review 😊i have an 09 V8 R- design fully loaded, no issues just regular maintenance. Changed all fliuds,trans, angle gear,rear diff/ including the filter in the diff. (Valve covers/ timing chain, power steering pump,common issues with the V8) no other issues in over 5 years of ownership.

The xc90 Limited editions 2011-2014 are the best car s in the world.... i still every day drive my D5 Executive 2013 with RICA modification 245 pk with massage and ventilation in the chairs

I have a UK 2011 D5 exec one. Love it. Really like your content

Great to see others on here with higher mileage . I picked up an 09 one owner with full service history . 103k miles . Going to do the transmission drain and fill method . I did the legend install with front and rear camera . Working out the RTI display but it brings it into 2004 era. Great video and content .

Killer man ! Very nice work, take it cross country!

Great car!! 💪👍

Bridgestone Alenzas are an excellent all purpose all season. Had those as an OEM on my Wrangler, which I originally intended to swap out for an all terrain, but the Alenzas handled ~6” of snow just fine. I’m surprised you didn’t consider the Volvo moose badges. Check them out, EBay and other places have it. A fun spin on the Ferrari mortif.

v8 wow that an unicorn of the volvo

I was able to pick up a 2014 XC90 with the 3.2 a few years back and it currently only has 70k on the odemeter. I love how well it ages but I'll be looking to do similar upgrades to the suspension /swaybars / wheels - i wouldnt say its greaton winding mtn roads so hopefully i can stiffen it up without losing much ability to go down a bumpy fire road

My mom hd a 07 xc90 v8 but it has wheels just like yours but they were 6 double spoke instead of 8

I have a 2010 xc90 3.2 executive with pretty much every option and those same wheels but 19”. It just so happens to have hit 240000 km recently. Where did you get those taillights from? been thinking of upgrading.

I wanted one of these with the V8 soooooo bad…

I would do a few oil changes of royal purple oil to clear off some of that tarnish inside the engine.

About rear taillights: they are from 2012 model year. Btw, you should fit mudflaps, they are really change the look of the car.

I have the newer 2017 D5 inscription but I love the idea of a V8 in a big SUV, D5 is really loud and slow/ Gotta love all XC90’s though

Thanks for your content. My XC90 had an epic fail with it’s sunroof drainage. I think my control module is shot as all my electronics are scattershot within the car. She rarely starts. Any inexpensive electronics available out there??

Are you planning on reviewing the D5 engine on the XC90??

Did you do any modifications to your exhaust system? It sounds a bit louder than mine (and I want mine to be slightly louder 🤓)

Did the V8 come in R-Design? What was tha latest year of the V8? I live in Sweden but seems there a newer V8 XC90 in Germany than at the homeland of the car hehe.

Is there any aftermarket digital clusters for this XC90?

what is volvo model of this rims ? :D i need them for my black xc90 :)

I cant believe you called the GS430 junk sir lol...

Where was it manufactured?

The v8 is nice sure and driven and briefly owned two in the past but much more prefer the 3.2 straight six. Not crazy powerful but much better mpg and little to no maintenance vs the v8 which I know cost $$$$$$ to keep running.

Is that a standard exhaust

I wish these were Torsen

Still loving my V8 Sport!

Love your reviews ur one of the only youtubers i actually enjoy watching, im first comment btw, pls pin

Ok Bern I have questions. A lot of them. I got a silver 2009 V8 AWD with about 200k miles around the first of the year but I haven't put hardley any miles on it yet. After an accident 15 years ago I went from "man of action" to limited....just very limited. I have been fixing a few little things and getting it the way I want it in the hopes I can try to get a little further from the house VERY soon. For my own sanity. I don't want to feel like I'm on the edge of stranding myself in some state park on a day trip because I under estimated just how screwed I really am. One question, what is an easy way to deturmin if you have an exec? I am sure mine is but I thought they all had a dual exahust cut out rear valance, but mine only has one driver side cut out for an exahust tip. Any idea where a guy could get a dual cut out? I've looked everywhere, on the internet, short of buying a parts car. Or is this a "your either born with it" OR cut the other side out myself with a sawzall, situation? Even though it'll look like poop? But at least that V8 will sound like it should, in the end. Thanks!

V8 Yamaha !

Girl, you match your car, congrats. ìt´s hard to achieve DAT

I have xc90 2.5t 2006 in UAE 🇦🇪 and planning to buy v8

I have passion red v8
