    Thumbs down I Hate To Have To Post This, the XC is dead

    yesterday was going pretty good, until this happened Article

    soemone pulled out in front of me and i hit them.
    the details are in the article.

    dont have any pics of the car yet, but i know it is totaled.
    will post pics in a few days.

    i'm ok, would have liked to walk away, but the paramedics wouldnt let me.
    and my friends wondered why i drive a volvo.

    so the search is on again for a new car.

    Good thing you are OK....

    From the image it's not going to be repaired. do you think you would buy it back and part it out or what? I have a 2000 S70 AWD if interested silver as well...

    Glad you're OK.
    If you might want an R I may be selling my 2000 V70R, one of the best in the world by now.
    Just by seeing that small picture, it's totalled twice over

    Default speechless!



    Glad you're OK.

    Whenever the family gives me crap about my "money pit", I'm showing them this article. Accidents like yours are exactly why I got rid of my 'Yota for a '98 XC.

    While it's sad to lose the car, it's better the car was totaled vs you being totaled.
