First official pictures of the Volvo XC60,

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.

Saw the concept at the NEC last year, I quite like it.

I concur: it's NOT a BMW for crying out loud, it's a VOLVO! And when is the marketing team from VOLVO going to realize that people are looking for a powerful, durable, boxy&spacious car when they're VOLVO-minded. Glad to own one of the last 'real' Volvos next to the 480: the 850 estate :D

I'm gunna get shot for saying this but i like it! I'm not into big 4x4 type cars, but this looks really nice! Thats what i really like about Volvo they dare to be different and often make intresting looking cars! But have made a few ugly mothers! :lol: It's like the c30 (which i also like) blatent 480 rip off though with it's intresting styling and quirky rear.
