ALL NEW VOLVO XC90

The current Volvo XC90 is a pretty car, but it has been with us since 2003. Volvo has recently announce that the new XC90 is going to be available in 2014, some 12 years after the release of the first generation. Together with the announcement came a few sketches, giving us the idea of what the car is going to look like.


It was also announce that it will be build on a completely new platform, with a new range of engines as well as a plug-in hybrid version developed in conjunction with Siemens. The design seems to follow the new, "Designed Around You" strategy by Volvo, which can be seen on the recently released Volvo V40.

What do you think? Will it be a hit or will it be lost in the already saturated market for SUV's?

VOLVO V40 New Digital Display

Recently I had the chance to experience the All New Volvo V40, and apart from the fact the the interior is just förvånansvärd, I was blow away by the quality of the instruments. By the looks of it, similar instruments will be fitted in the next generations Volvo's. Do you like the idea of digital instruments or would you rather keep with the analogue?
Here is a little video from Volvo. Jellyfish? Really?

VOLVO PV 444 FOR SALE

Today I found a masterpiece - 1947 VOLVO PV 444

This particular car has only done 21980 miles (35000 km) is has been kept in a dealership for the last 10 years. It certainly looks amazing and pretty much brand new. It features a beautiful cream & lime dash and leather seats which look absolutely unused. The car is available for sale in Sweden but delivery to any European country can be arranged.





The PV 444 was introduced by Volvo right after the second world war, as the company saw the need for a new small family car, delivering good comfort and fuel efficiency. To begin with the car was sold with a 1.4L 40hp 4 cylinder in-line engine, coupled to a 3 speed manual gearbox. In 1955 the PV 444 has undergone an extensive face-lift. It sported a  much bigger front windscreen, new bumpers, new front grill and a new rage of improved engines.
In 1958 the PV 444 was replaced by the PV 544.
