A brillant design feature and why other car makes have never introduced one beats me. I put the disabled disc there when I take my parents out.

agreed totally, it isn;t going to cost them more that 2p to put these things in other car, but then again, they are not VOLVO!!

The wife's ****roen Piccarso has got one. Trouble is, the bottom of the windscreen so far away from the driver you can't reach it.

There are after market ticket holders, but some of them are just ridiculously (spelling?) priced.

This is more reasonable

I have put one in every car I've had since they started sell those little plastic marvels many years ago (but it was in a Volvo I saw it first).
