I see a dull & boring euro box. I'm sorry but I can't get excited about a Volvo, it's just not going to happen I'm afraid. I know it might be your pride & joy, but to me & possibly many others, it's just a Volvo.
By the way, please tell me you're not going to drive it above 30mph with that spacesaver spare wheel on?

I've just got an 850 T5, which will be taking over from the SD1 for the winter. Fantastic car IMHO. I've got a 360 GLT too which I need to sell - another great Volvo Smile

The police used SD1s so they couldn't have been that bad....
