Happy to see you do this little test drive in the beach sand from a stop.
I have an XC70 on my mind (I periodically need AWD).
Looks like a nice place where I'd hang out (if allowed) to windsurf & kitesurf.
Actually would love to know where that particular spot is. I think I may have been there at one point traveling through NL. I'm thinking: the West side of the Afsluitdijk.
Happy memories of windsurfing and icesurfing in Friesland, years ago :)
@xvrhernandez349 Well, it's better than a normal FWD car for sure but it's not a 4X4 truck....I have 2 Audis with quattro and find i have never needed the extra ground clearence that you get with the XC70, but have heard nothing but good things about theses later models. Earlier XCs had crap AWD system that couldn't fully lock up both axels so couldn't make it up a snowy hill.
Thanks for sharing.

@theicerabbit It is indeed just west of the Afsluitdijk, at the northern part of the former island Wieringen

:) Thank you, uselessbatman, for confirming that :)
Wouldn't have hesitated to make a windsurfing trip up there ... if I hadn't moved to another continent.

Thank you for this video. I was wondering if my Viscous is fine. Now i see hat is spins all 4 wheels all time on sand.

@marines081 You should check it though, the Viscous gets a bit laggy when it gets older, Mine is still good though.
