Most of the drivers of such cars don´t even know that Sweden makes cars, much less know that of the two makers, one is an exciting, lively and original firm and the other is Volvo.
haha :D hahaha

staaltje Brits understatement.... geweldig.

Deze zin is ook fraai: ' The bodywork shows some subtlety of sculpting that the men at Volvo could only dream of. '

Dank voor de link "Devil's Own V4"

Wat zouden je medeburgers van deze alinea gevonden hebben??

"I always say that a good motor car is the product of the conditions from which it has risen. Italian cars are designed for fiery people who live in a dry climate so their cars are exciting but rust-prone. German cars are designed for a serious but romantic people meaning they drive machines that balance practicality with humorous over-engineering. The Irish like to drink and sing songs so they don´t make cars at all. The same goes for the Welsh. For the life of me I can´t determine how the awful weather and dreary mode of life of the Swedes can give rise to such a thing as a Saab. But then again, the Swedes aren´t noted warriors so why do they make a warplane? I shall ask an academic about this one day."

Deliveries to the United Kingdom begin next year. Rubberised floor-mats will be available in 1972.
3 jaar later dus... ?

Leuk artikel, niet alleen vanwege de humor maar ook vanwege de vele dingen die hij als bijzonder noemt die we nu zo gewoon vinden. Bedankt voor de link :)
