Haha, my ex sensus V90, when asked 'Message to Katie' would usually reply 'Seat Heater Off'. Bizarre...

The car impressed my wife's friends who joined her for a lift to a Christmas meal out this evening.

Imagine my "delight" when they both got in with full glasses of prosecco. Luckily, being northerners, they necked it quickly.

Will they be on the look out for the Volvo key when it goes in the bowl then?

REAL Westmerians would have had BOTTLES of prosecco, then necked them quickly.

The only bowl I interact with is the one on the end of my pipe. I thought all Volvo drivers were the same?!

As for the bottle...this was Penrith (and therefore Cumberlandians?) where they're all too poor for that much!

Cumberland - that explains things. Did your passengers manage to get in whilst you kept the car rolling - to make it harder for the toerags to remove your wheels ?















Only joking. Penrith is lovely. It goes back over 40 years, when I was told that "there be dragons over there". Over there being the towering Mountain Range that keeps Westmorland safe from the Cumberland hordes - aka Shap Fell

The only wheels at risk around here are the ones that fit on tractors!

I only live 7 miles from Shap in a straight line. It's a scary thought.

Starting to get used to the car now...it's beautiful and the Google Assistant is such a massive leap from the previous software as it's all much more integrated. The mapping also allows things like the ability to see which exit to take off the upcoming roundabout rather than making you guess.
