yes, yes and yes!!!...they're a real giggle; A to B it's a quick as anything really, but the best thing for me is how such a big car seems to 'shrink' around you when you start slinging it about..
I play with the body roll, try to keep the motor spinning in the 'meaty' bit and avoid having to jam the brakes on hard wherever possible but it's just so much damn fun to drive!
Mechanical issues? We'll see soon enough, I'm sure: I have abused it a bit (who doesn't like the noise these things make when you gas it away from the line and the tyres are scrabbling for grip?? ) so my wallet prolly deserves a good spanking..
I'm really looking forward to getting Carlos back on the road, really I am...but the Volvo gets 'used' and used well..ours is a proper workhorse and round sunny(!) Oxfordshire it sure works well enough!
