The V8 is surely great. Never drove any Volvo with more power than my parents' S70, though.

Not an inline 5 cylinder... but a V8... in a Volvo?!? Jesus Christ... this end is nigh! :zombiefuck:

I'm sorry, I forgot... what car are you driving again?

That's what I drive  :green:

Bah. odeon! It doesn't feel plastic inside.  :stick: :laugh:

Which engine do you have?


She's got the V8. She likes smoking Escalades.

Cool. It's a lot more fun in that car than the 2.5.

Just thinking out loud here... if the 2.5 and V8 are offered in the same chassis, would that mean the V8 would fit in a car that has the 2.5?


How awesome would a V8 C30 be?

The Sims Medieval game.

I was a bit interested in that. I really liked the Castaway game. If you see this, post about the game :) im interested :)

Seems like there are a lot of people here that like the Sims. I am usually alone in that respect. May be an AS thing.

I've played it for at least an hour now, it's more structured like a quest-based gameplay in conjuction with sandbox, instead of purely sandbox. The general idea is to build a kingdom and play as the monarch managing everything. I can't say much more because I still need to play it longer to get the feel for it, but yeah I like it.

 :o I need this!!!! I have a love for the Sims and a long standing obsession with the Tudors. Win-win computer game for me!!!  :green:

That's irrelevant. And your Jaguar is nothing special. Get over yourself, jackass.

Pretty awesome. Though the C30 is still pretty heavy for a "small" car: 1.3 tons.

That's about what small cars weigh in North America. All that federally mandated safety and emissions equipment is heavy. The GTI is even heavier.

There is a 400 bhp version of the C30, but I think it's with a turbo engine.

And yeah, there is a lot of room under the bonnet in the XC90.

I can believe that, it's easy to make power with that engine. It's the same engine that's in the Ford Focus RS.

It's a nice engine but the XC90 is a big car and the Focus is, well, not.
