Off Topic Fire?

I've lost count how many Volvos I've had.

Probably around 15 since the early 90s.



Only left the fold once. And that was when I bought a Saab.


Currently got a V60 which I've had for years and mainly use as a runaround. Adaptive cruise control means it almost drives itself. Active Xenon headlights are the best I've ever used.

The other is an XC70 which I use for towing.

That is a dull drive though.

Built like a tank: it's an excellent tugger.



Volvo: Best car ever. FACT.

 

Volvo enters British touring car racing

 

Not quite to my taste. Each to our own x

 

Thought they were meant to last forever, you should only have had one!

 

You sound like my dad. Swore by Vauxhalls, only because the dealer was at top of our street.

 

Do you reckon there are any librarians that read these threads?

I've just got this vision of them going mental at seeing 'cars' filed under 'fire'.

 

Glad to hear it , I know a couple of people who work there

 

I really wish I still had the first one I bought.

A 340.

Classic Volvo.




Boxy but good.

 

Funnily enough my dad gave up on Vauxhall after about 40 years and bought a 340 automatic.

 

well I hope that everyone is ok and there are no casualties. hopefully a story of a big fire reported by someone called burnsy helped get the message out and people are safe.

Amazingly this was not mentioned on Sky but is top story on RT

 

I drove past about half 5 and the police and ambulances were still fighting their way through the traffic to get to the scene which is ridiculous given it happened an hour before I passed. I came off at Melton but the traffic was ridiculous all over. Have to feel for those who are still stuck now

 

Not sure how big a place it is but a lot of people are now without a job

 

my part dyslexia read that as

well I hope that everyone is ok and there are no casualties. hopefully a story of a fire reported by someone big called burnsy helped get the message out and people are safe

 

but just think of those cleaner seas they'll be able to swim in with all their new found free time.

 

That's a bit of a shellfish attitude....
