you can’t all be running around in Classic Volvos?
Why not?

Most of volvos that I see nowadays are either "classics" (that is over 10 years in this example), and drivers seem mostly aware of what's going on around them. I can quite easily expect good percentage of those to at least visit this forum.

Then there's new ones. Unfortunately, what I see (and it may be different elsewhere) mostly big, driven by someone whose head barely clears dashboard, self centered and apparently requiring at least 30 metres clearance on both sides of car to pass safely.

Now, I wouldn't expect such a person to even know of this sites existence..


All that is actually a half-joke.

I may be only having a little of a banter session here, but yes, unfortunately I can see something I call for myself "a BMW behaviour" with more and more Volvo drivers. Interestingly- new models.
