So is my truck (old). But it barrels through anything else on the road (just like a Volvo should) in a very mean and nasty way.

It's rather fun knowing in the back of your head that if it came down to it, you could quite literally push off the road the annoying little prat that just cut you off.

Volvos still bring up a mental image of old farts with flat caps and pipes for me, please don't get one!

It's like Nissans. They're just rusty old Datsuns under a different name!

oooh SAAB 93 1.9DT sport money. Now I was really really impressed with this motor, should be looking 2003-2004 for that money.

Flibster, I thought elise's were a heck of a lot more than 6k

If I end up doing long distance driving with work again i'll be getting either an armchair volvo or saab. I do know how much you liked your st24 back in the day but st220's are now within your grasp... unless you want to move away from mondy's

I heart mondeos! In a perfect world I'd have a Focus ST-3 but the cheapest I've seen one is about £14k, scarey!

Matt, I'd LOVE a Mini, you know I would, but I'm just not sure it's really that practical.
