Am I being a bit dim here but whats this all about? Whats the purpose of being able to do such things with the suspension? Does it improve the handling?

I watched 'pimp my ride' once and was totaly mystified - well, by the white middle class chap pretending to be a black american for a start........

Perhaps I'm just getting old................

Whatever your opinion of this, at least it's one more on the road and one less in the breakers yard, and if it gets more youngsters interested in Volvo, then surely that can only be a good thing, raising marque awareness. After all, it has been said that no publicity is bad publicity (although not so sure Jade Goodie would agree with that.)

I would be horrified to see my daughter coming home in something like this. What happens if the leveling system went out of control during a drive, round a round-about etc. The paint job is hiddeous. Sorry does nothing for me. The only thing I am surprised at is I didn't see the name of the driver and his female companion's name on the top of the windscreen!
