So, I was getting bored of my 1st Volvo a 2004 V-70 2.4. Was looking at a XC-90 when I let it slip to the sales man I really wanted an R-car. I brought my wife back that weekend to drive the 90, since I already had. Waiting there was a 2006 V70-R, in black. Eight hours later I had a new race car! We had it over 100mph on the test drive, with me & him up front, my wife and a new sales girl holding hands in the back seat. He said he never had a customer use the parking brake on a test drive before. Not my best 180*, but pretty good for a car I'd never driven before. My past new cars had included a 2001 Dodge caravan, 1999 Dodge caravan, 1989 GTA, and a
1986 Buick Grand National. This has to be the "funnest" car I have had yet. Looks like the wife doesn't get her XC-90 till the minivan is out of warrantee, in about 3 years.Greetings from SC, USA! MK
