Well, if I buy it, that is. We want a Volvo C70 convertible and Volvo has a great European delivery program. If all works out right, we'll go over there in the summer.

I'll keep you posted.

The wife seems to want Celestial Blue.



I like red or the darker blue (same color as yours). Did you like the Volvo? Was it dependable?

Awesome car, except the gearbox fell out after 1500 miles but they gave me a top of the range replacement and free servicing for 2 years because it had never happened before

noice.

It had BETTER be in Stockholm! I can show you and the wife around

Now the question is: Why don't more Orgers go get their cars in Sweden?

Yeah go see Jen, and if you dont get the car, its still travel much worth it..

How do they handle underwater?

Oh sweetie you need to come here in the summer, it's light almost all through the night and we can go to bars and walk through Stockholm all night to see the beautiful places

Teacher said:

Awesome! I don't know the itinerary, but I'll let you know as soon as I do.

I want a Volvo Amazon

I want a driver's lisence too.

My parents once took delivery of a Mercedes convertible in Germany (they lived in Wisconsin at the time). They drove it through the Black Forest and Austria before having it shipped home.

They said it was a blast.

You don't pick up the car in Stockholm. I forget the city, but I know it's not Stockholm.

Can I have a ride

RodeoSchro said:

you'll probably have to go to the factory 45 mins north of Göteborg

Volvo Amazon

A friend of mine HAD a Volvo, but his soccer mates kept pronouncing it Vulvoooooaaaaa, in a posh English accent.

He got another car after three months, pretending it wasn't a good car, but I knew he was fibbing. He got bullied becuz of the Vulvoooooaaaaa.

Interesting idea, Schro. I'm a sucker for German imports, and I've thought casually about this from time to time.

Is the cost with shipping still a lot cheaper than the price you'd pay in the U.S. market?

What's so funny about Göteborg?

Lammastide said:

Allegedly. The way it was explained to me, I'll still end up paying about $45,000 for the car. But about $39,000 will go to Volvo for the car, and $6,000 will go to Volvo for the trip.

I'm just now figuring it all out. Don't hold me to those numbers.
