that would be fantastic if we as the consumer could design a car and then buy it, hopefully that might happen in the future, HOPEFULLY

Having driven a Mondeo estate compared to the V70 2.D SE the decision would have been a no brainer if the advance payment for the Mondeo had been the same. The Mondeo is by far a better drive than the Volvo. It seems Ford has saved all the best mechanical bits for the Mondeo and in some way has compromised the Volvo ride. In my opinion the Mondeo is also the better looking car. The area that the Volvo does beat the Mondeo is the cabin. If I could have the ride and looks of a Mondeo and the cabin of the Volvo then for a big estate that would be pretty much perfect.
