Default Swedespeed/ Volvo GTG April 4

I know there are a few Volvo owners on this BB. I recently joined the Swedespeed BB and bought one of these dreaded family-sized coffins -- though in sedan form -- for a new daily driver.

There is a Swedespeed/ Volvo Get-Together at Don Beyer's Dulles location on SUNDAY, April 4, from noon until 5:00 pm. People are bringing food, and there will hopefully be a grill or two. DB is supposed to have a couple demos available for test drives, as well.

For more info: http://forums.swedespeed.com/zerothread?id=18740

<sigh> it's not the same as a Porsche gathering, but at least it will get me close to OG Racing -- I need to pick up a few things!

<double-sigh> no it won't. OG Racing is closed on Sundays...

We had a 960 wagon for years. It was a great car mechanically but, oddly, terrible in the snow. We're thinking about the AWD wagon (A70?) for my wife. Saw it at the Pittsburgh auto show.

Just looked at that site. It's the V70.

You may want to check out the V70 R. It's AWD and has a few extra HP than the regular V70...
