Re: Hi, how are you?
Greetings, but unclear if you mean chisel or Cheese Elk?? Chisel - I can understand.
Elk - we call them deer over here. Elk is more like moose or a gnu or a wildebeest. I used to work with someone of a similar-sounding surname to the latter and the resulting nickname _really_ stuck, and still does.

Re: Hi, how are you?
CVT is unique. They are a bit like an auto but only a bit. Main thing is that you don't have to change gear

Re: Hi, how are you?
Welcome Chris! If you're new to variomatics it's a very good idea to join the German DAF club. They're likely to be of a lot more help to you if you have any problems than your local Volvo dealer ...
Hope you enjoy your car! Any pics?
Cheers
Tom
