Panic over. The new tensioner arrived this morning and contrary to my expectations it slipped straight in and an hour later I was back on the road,it seems I made a fuss over nothing, still I know better now.

Dear Gatos,

I'm thinking of having an affair with a C70. Is this cheating?

Yours sincerely
Doris Smith

No, not at all and perfectly fine as long as you are a mormon. You are allowed to own and ride more than one horse carriage at a time, so the same applies to horseless carriages. Just make sure it is a swede and not those unreliable german things.....

This could turn into a better thread than Dog_book's

Dear Gatos, Please help!

I am a strong believer of leaving the past in the past. It's like ex girlfriends! Once you leave you don't go back!

However I find myself one again owning a V40 and just like last time, I am already taking the dashboard apart!!

Why am I doing this?? is there any support groups that can help me? I am worried that this addiction is putting a strain on my marriage!

That's an easy one again. I am afraid that it is all your fault my dear child. When you experience something like this

you want more and more and more of it.

However, when you experience something like this

do you really want to go back and find another one? No.

So the answer for you is really simple.

Start buying cars like this

and you will never go back to them ever again.....

Now you got hooked on the Volvo....... well, tough poop.

PS. Have fun with the dashboard...

inchley313 · Apr 24th, 2015, 16:53

I think it's replies like this ^^^ that keep us coming back to Volvo's and not the cars themselves!!

Here is another safe choice

You should also make the same choices in your exes and match them to your car, so here you go

Mate I used to own one of those and it was a really good piece of equipment!! Just to clarify, I am talking about the Scorpio!!

Drove it 2000 miles to Malta and it never missed a beat!
