    The Ovlov...

    My new car has just been delivered and what a great day to have a car delivered!

    Some quick pics.





    Now I know most of you won't like it, but I do and I have to drive it all day long.

    I have seen quite a few while out on the highways and there are aspects I really like about them and some aspects I really don't like about them.

    Not a fan of the front end, its abit to artsey looking for a Volvo IMO, overall though its a nice package and fit for purpose I suppose!

    Style and practicality-wise it seems to fall between two stools. Those huge rear quarters look wrong, especially with the reduced rear glass height and the brightwork too. The rims might grow on me, but the rest I could easily live with.

    I like most of the newer Volvos, wouldnt mind a c30 d5 for work but style-wise that thing is just a mess! Rears quite nice but the side and front are so wrong.

    Same here. Does look very long.

    Did you not consider a Audi or Merc?

    I like volvo's, my dad had the last shape V70 D5 and put 230,000 miles on it in 4 years - it never missed a beat tbh.

    Really not a fan of the shape of that thing though! Looks all stretched and wrong.
