'It is time to once and for all forget all about boxy Volvos.' 200

Its their money. They can do whatever they want. Ford can have the "crossover", and the crossunder(if they can find one).

Hope the door doesnt hit em in the ... on the way out.

Meanwhile, when is the last time I made a car payment?...Hmmm? Lets see 19...?
I cant remember.

I wonder if anyone could produce a modern car that has the soul of the volvo 240.
LIke relatively easy to fix, long lasting, safe, unique etc? The chinese maybe? Who? Possible at all?

Or does such a beast already exist?

I sense that the 240 was built for a practical set of people who were not consumed with image, but with utility.
I, for one, am not interested in a car that will cost a fortune to aquire, and then another fortune to keep on the road. Count me out! I dont care what it may look like.
