:lol: she was fun to have in the chat room. :D

x10 on that. Most of my sales on VS are from new members with zero posts who found me through google.

I also advertise on a regional 4x4 forum, and actually sell there only because of SEO. Only 2 people on that site out of about 10,000 members own a Volvo.

+1 I heard about matt by searching google trying to find abs modules, and stumbled upon a few postings, and had persuasion of MVS.

I personally am ok with the new FS, it is definitely alot more... Secure then the old way.

No more having to worry your going to get ripped off, or cheated out of stuff.

Plus, it detures those who are going to clog up someones FS.

But I will say this... I highly doubt you'll ever see my on their unless I am desperate to get rid of something, I will no doubt just lurk on wanted until l someone needs what I have laying around.

from what I hear..... it was broken.

working for a gov company, we have firefox already installed on all the comps.

very few people use IE, and thats just due to the intranet part of it.

I use, firefox and google chrome.

FF for vs and facebook, and chrome for work. haah.

Fuck you eBay, Fuck...you.

Uh oh! what happened now!

Like stated above, i'd never buy one after 98 myself. However, i need parts and if quality in said parts drop...well...then whats the point to the volvo? Other then that i wouldn't care hahah...

I just go to the Junk yard! lol

Sample of what they produce:

This makes me sick to my stomach. They're a bunch of effin' posers.

Granted they may be posers I must enter my 2 cent...

SHINY!!!!!!!!!!

haha ok on with the debates!

Im quite happy with my 13 year old 854!

1st. I wont ever own a Ford Volvo.

2nd. some how im doubting I will ever own anything other then a volvo now that I have tasted the 854.

3rd. Ehhh cant rag on china to much.

Emissions

Due to rapidly expanding wealth and prosperity, the number of coal power plants and cars on China's roads is rapidly growing, creating an ongoing pollution problem. China enacted its first emissions controls on automobiles in 2000, equivalent to Euro I standards. China's State Environmental Protection Administration (SEPA) upgraded emission controls again on July 1, 2004 to the Euro II standard[6]. More stringent emission standard, National Standard III, equivalent to Euro III standards, went into effect on July 1, 2007.[7] Plans are for Euro IV standards to take effect in 2010. Beijing introduced the Euro IV standard in advance on January 1, 2008, became the first city in mainland China to adopt this standard.[8]

MPG

The average fuel economy of family vehicles in China is already higher than in the United States, mainly because cars in China tend to be considerably smaller than those in the United States — and are getting even smaller because of recent tax changes.

So what does that mean?

Wed be seeing volvos that get 40mpg in the USA? IDK, it would be nice!

regardless of the safety I would buy a 40mpg Volvo with a 3 star safety rating then a ford or bmw with a 4 or 5 star. and only 20mpg.

4. Im driving my 854 till she cant go no more. then getting a turbo. haha!

I figure if a car can take 300k miles and still keep the mpg up in the 20s. its a good car.

Either way, I cannot see myself purchasing a Volvo that was not built by the swedes unless it can rival the mechanical standards of my current Volvo. Let me know when they do that, then ill be a volvo china fan. or a volina fan.

Is this good or bad... Is it now safe to buy a new Volvo?

What year will china begin producing and what will they be bringing to the table as the new owners?

+1 to safety or -1?

Im very curious if I should stick to the pre ford buyout models. IE 850, 960. , or the new china buyout .

also if anyone is curious?
