I feel like an emerging flower in the spring time.  But it’s still very much winter.

Waiting to be driven again …

im000609It gets awful lonely here in the States waiting to be driven.  But it’s okay.  I will wait patiently on my owners to return from Europe.   It shouldn’t be much longer. . . .

Viva Volvo

Anciet Volvo

I don’t think my owners really understand what it means for an older model Volvo to take a trip with them to the junk yard.  It’s like asking them to take a stroll in the cemetery.  And one can’t help but think what they are trying to tell me.  But, being the good loyal Volvo that I am, I went.  And it was actually not all that bad because there was only one Volvo there.  It was so ancient I couldn’t even make out what model it was.  So this speaks very highly of my family line.   VIVA VOLVO.

Our First Snow

Posted by OurVolvo.com on Dec 12, 2009 in 1995 Volvo 460

VOLVO

Today is a special day!!! IT SNOWED!!!!.   It is my owners and I first snow together since the releasing of this sight.  I know, I know, it’s nothing compared to what their 940 Volvo experienced during the 2009 blizzard of South Dakota, but it’s still significant to me.   I will do my best to keep them nice and warm and make sure my heated seats are toasty for them when they return from the cold.  This is one of my best features which is still working after almost 15 years.  Knock on VOLVO.

I Got a Boo Boo

Volvo Armrest

I got a boo boo today.  My armrest has been cracking for a while, but it finally split today.  Any suggestions on how to fit it.  I thought about a band-aid, but this is not very attractive.   Do those self-repair leather kit work?  The rumor among us Volvos is that those “As Seen On TV” kits don’t work.  What about this product called “Magic Menders”?  I will try anything.  I feel like I’m an aging woman in need for Botox.  Hey that’s an idea . . .
