From the noise or the external ambiance going on?

Mine is very tidy apart from both bumpers approaching extreme levels of sag and battlescar's. Means folk do not park very close to me as they assume its me who's been doing the scarring.

57 plate

18,000 mile on it when I bought it 6 weeks ago (average around 2500 miles per year)

20,656 on it now

full Volvo service history. loving it!

This is the second Volvo (the first was a 2005 S60) I have bought with similar stories. Old guy, hardly drove it, no longer needs it. buys a smaller version.

Bargain!
