Do bikers still hate Volvos, or did all that finish years ago. The Ogri cartoon used to feature planet Ovlov [backwards for volvo] and all the editorials in biking mags used to go on about ow Ovlov drivers were cut off from reality and always ploughing into Bikes.
When I used to drive a company car up and down the motorways, I used to see loads of them broke down in the summer with stream coming out of their bonnets, I just thought that all of those lights were too much of a strain for them in the heat. Is this hatred still there? or was it all a figment of my imagination? |

I find Volvo drivers to be quite courteous and well behaved, far more so than the majority of BMWs, Mercs or Audis.
I was toying with idea of getting one myself. |

I really don't care.. the main people I have a problem with is the one up my ****.. be that a volvo, Audi, BMW, ford.. or anything else.. Sometimes it other bikers... normally so **** who can't ride a sports bike to save his life but knows how to twist a throtle in a straight line.

![]() Seriously, I stick by that, I'm not saying all, but a lot of big krautmobiles are driven aggressivly and with little regard for other road users although IMO about 80% of all car drivers shouldn't have a license as they don't seem to have clue what they are doing (some bikers too). I'm sure there are a few courteous, patient, well driven German exec's around, probably yourself included Cronos |
