Volvo now exclusively sells SUVs in the UK, having discontinued all of its saloon and estate cars.

At least, no more Volvo estates in the UK, they will continue in other markets.

A 740GLE was the first 'posh' car my parents had, and they were a common sight in the 80s and 90s, epitomising the middle class family on British roads. So it seems at once incredible that they will be no more, but also unsurprising given the strength of the trend towards SUVs in the family car market.
