i hope this was a joke....volvos have never been cool, its what my father and my granddad drives. yeah they're indestructable, thats thats it really.

and the only reason they're cool now? Twilight books/films. so unless you're 40 + or a 14 year old girl lusting after RPatz, get out of the volvo!!!

I used to be heavily into modified cars. Missis has a show winning mag cover car. Mine was more subtle. I arranged a corsa vx saxo day at Brunters, put those french tin driving boyracers in their place

I didn't do carparks and McDonalds, I done shows, stands, trackdays, and European showcar trips

As for the S40 being a cool car? Seriously? For real? *stutters* Only way any volve is slightly cool is an 850 with a T5 lump

I still have the golf - it is bomb proof and I am too tight to get rid!

I have a metallic orange C30 R Design.

It's very cool. Says a 50 year old

I'll let you off with that one Ed Those are actually quite nice.

But we spec'd one up. Basic car price was ok, but once you'd added twin exhaust, sat nav etc, it went through the roof. Reminded me of the current S3 we're getting delivered in a few weeks time (gearbox went on the VXR astra, so ordered a new S3 in white, NOM). Difference was the audi has a nicer interior.

But i really like those C30's!! Big factory wheels and full works treatment and they look pukka.
