Passing of an era

[andyalan10]

I went to the Volvo website yesterday to see just what a new replacement for my V70 would cost.

No V70 listed in the new models section. Autotrader only lists about half a dozen pre-registered cars with less than 2000 miles on the clock.

And a quick look at the V90 seems to show it is automatic only.

So no more V70 badge, no more manuals, no more 5 cylinder engines and no petrols at the moment. I know the latter two have been true for a while but even so, it made me feel quite nostalgic.
