Haha brilliant video! It's almost like a Volvo advert with that music

You'd laugh at our country dealing with a mild dusting
It reminds me of this video, the launch of the new 740...

It may look that way, but apart from the long right hander it was all second gear. We usually drive faster roads, but we had to find a location with streetlights but without traffic and cops

Just a little dent and a broken indicator. It will be lasting though, as I won't bother to fix it any time soon. More battle scars are probably just around the corner

Great show.Hope the car wasn't to badly hurt.
I'm shure the camera man needed a drink after taking those pictures.
Cheers Mark.
