anyone know anything about this?

Some things just can't be placed elsewhere. Have you been speeding and got fined? Or spotted a nice new Volvo on the web somewhere? All non-480 messages can be posted in this part of the board.

If I remember correctly, this was made by someone who used to work for Volvo. So actually this was not build by Volvo. Pretty impressive handycraft.

Took the piccies myself, man was that a cool sight! Indeed made by a mad Volvo employee in his own time as I've heard.

More piccies of the Volvo T6 roadster here 8)

Well, it does look gorgeous, but then again, it probably just doesn't fit into Volvo's strategy of building safe cars.
