What cars have you been most pleased to show a clean pair of heels in your Volvo...?

...or have had a good bit of fun with?

any that consider taking twenty
minutes to reach the speed limit
or turning a corner to be normal

A couple spring to mind.

1st, a Civic Type R with an exhaust tip I could live in.
This was in my old S1 460 Turbo auto that was almost bog standard outside, so fully rocking the grandad effect.
He really was gutted when I spoke to him afterwards. Lol

2nd, an R56 Mini Cooper Works with the 'charger pulley modded, in my fettled S70 T5 auto.
He nailed me off the line, especially with mine being auto and really laggy, but as soon as I came on boost he was mine

Just remembered...
Shoe on the other foot. I raced a mate.
He was in his mildly modded P1 V70R manual.
I was in my XC90 V8 auto.
The result suprised us both, but more so him

My NA v70 has always eaten v6 mustangs for breakfast, not because its so rediuclously quick, judt because v6 drivers think theyre fast but theyre super slow, only thing done to my volvo is a highflow cone filter and a 3" exhaust from the cat back to a flowmaster 40 series

Oh, but the most memorable was pulling on this big truck who thought he was fast because he had a diesel, i did it with 2 people in the car cheering me on while running a donut on the front driver side, probably the most dangerous way ive ever touched 100mph
