hi Me and the other half Went to Freedom Test Drive Plus 1 today at the mira testing ground nr Nuneaton :) Excellent day good weather as well :) , only prob wasnt allowed to take pictures on site :( , got to do all this # PROdrive ? take a high speed ride with a professional racing driver in an awesome Volvo V70 R or S60 R ? see what they can really do # Driving Dynamics ? test the acceleration, speed and stopping distances of a Volvo in a straight sprint ? not for the faint hearted! # Off-Road ? experience the cutting edge Volvo AWD Haldex system in action driving around a demanding off-road course # Safety/Accident Avoidance ? split friction braking, hands-free braking and obstacle avoidance ? discover how Volvo?s DSTC and ABS systems could help save your life Pro drive was the best part esp seeing how far an R will go till it gives in :) also got to sit in the new s80 v8 Jay ________ Headshops

nobody seemed that bothered when I took pics. Mind I did take them of the C70 once I was off site!

I liked that bit - sure it is not the full majestic power aerial of its predecessors but why not!
