Every day's a school day (or so I'm told). Had a BX estate for a few years - lovely on the motorway & dual carriageway but not so nice in the twisty bits. Comfortable, spacious enough for twins and all their clutter. Solid parcel shelf for baby changing on long runs. Huge boot space long enough for a tandem buggy. 'Tis a shame that Volvo didn't follow through with that concept - I'm sure it would have been a much better engineered car (maybe even with 'proper' suspension).

Never knew of this model, interesting. Was it a Volvo / Citroen get together or something?

I never knew that.
Good to see Dan has kept the Sucksqueezebangblow site going, I thought it had disappeared into the website graveyard many years ago.
