No, I don't plan on modding the SPG. It's all stock save for the bilstein HD's and a whale tail.
I'm thinking a base model 3-door 900. With engine weight inherently over the drive shafts and with the correct tire combo, it might be great in the sand. Consider the fact that you have to air down to get a larger foot print for soft sand and then factor in the ruts of the tire trails, the body of the car has to be be able to clear the small dunes in between the tracks. I think the 900 has the advantage of a flat bottom with no rear differential housing to hang down. The clearance is also needed to avoid being "high-middled" over dunes. For reference, Wiki says the min. ground clearance for a Volvo V70 Cross Country is 8.2"
