Default Introduction foobar from Switzerland

Hi there

I recently had to let go from my 9-5 Aero MY02 (250'000+ Km and heavy used, especially the engine). Since the "newer" Saabs are definitely not anymore what I'm looking for considering quality, there was only Volvo left (can't see me drive around in a German alternative).

I always liked their puristic look and feel. Since I have a large dog I need a lot of trunk space, particularly considering height. As even Volvos are getting "modern" and SUV are not my thing, there was only the V70 and the XC70 left. Yeah, I do not really count the XC70 as an SUV

After looking around what is on the market, I decided for a:

V70 MY08 Summum D5 AUT in black with grey interior

It is in a very good shape in- and outside. Even though I bought it from a Volvo dealer, I know the guy who bought it and drove it till it was exchanged against a V40. Funny coincidence. Anyway, I like my new ride and looking forward to discuss some questions I have and to see what is going on on the Volvo planet.
