That was the initial response when I told my friends which car I had picked as my new car. As bikers, a Volvo always used to be our nemesis, so when I got one, boy was I ribbed! In fact, when it arrived, one frined bought me some fluffy dice, and another bought me a tartan rug! Only the fact that no-one could find one did I not receive a crocheted facial tissue cover!
Oh how they laugh on the other sides of their faces now!
It's never had a days problem in 30,000 miles, it's comfortable, easy to drive, has a great sound system (pro-logic), is quiet, sturdy and safe.
Precisely why I picked it in the first place!
