The new Volvo is cool? Believe it.

come and go with barely a purr, others with a growl; Volvo's C30, though,
has been generating a buzz. The Swedish car maker has at last made a car for
trendy, young urbanites, foregoing its traditional family target, and
rivalling upmarket compact hatchbacks such as the Audi A3 and BMW 1 series.

 

Do you work for an advertising agency involved with Volvo? Or are you
just adept at using copy and paste. Blather like the above is rarely
read outside of press releases from the marketing department.

L.B.J.-era P1800ES sports car, but will it ever acquire as fanatical a
following?"

Only if you close your eyes and pretend. That car has no resemblance
to the P1800 cars I'm familiar with. The sloping rear end with angular
rear side windows is a tedious design that means a rear seat designed
for children and not much more.

 

Dear Volvo friend, as a owner of the Volvo 480ES I can tell you that the
back seats can be used for adults, no problems.
I think that the C30 has the same space.

Not to mention the fact that Nixon was President when the
1800ES came out.

 

I have a 400 1.9TDI.
The alternator recently failed and since I have replaced it and charged
the battery the alarm light continous blinks when driving.
How can I switch this off?
I understand it indicates that the alarm has been activated.
