Update.
XC60 has been faultless so far.
Quick, quiet and lux +. Handling is "average" when pushed. The gen 1 xc90 R design is actually nicer to steer into a corner. 125i alternate (when my wife isn't using her car) is a constant reminder of this! T5 has plenty of poke, and endearing like the T5 xc90, though not as breathless, not at all! :). Feel the need for a trip to Darwin.
It's just seen 25km further offroad than I'd expect any new xc60 in oz has done - and survived.
Mostly (but not exclusively) in sand on a fire track, and nothing I wouldn't have managed in 2WD cars of the past with plenty of momentum, but it was effortless despite the poor wheel/tyre combo and inflated for the road.
