Hi everyone, Couldn't resist relating the wonderful experience of driving my SVX after a winter of Volvo's. This being my first real experience of the car for any distance after all the work on it now finished I am well impressed. Left in '3' till 80 mph and in power mode it is responsive, silky smooth and quite quick. Had to remove the resonator from the exhaust as I had 2 to choose from, one which 'buzzed' when cold and one that 'buzzed' when hot so slight inside noise increase but no Fiatesque embarassing noises anymore!
Grip level is excellent and in the wet it really shines. Now if it were a lot lighter, manual, and gadget free with brakes that coped..... sorry, it's a good car and best of all, very few know what it is!
All the best, Steve.
