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.

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

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

Don't forget the Dutch Volvo 300 Club! Lots of knowledge around there.
