Thanks.
I've got plenty more to add to what I've relayed to Dammit, the short version is that the Volvo is amazing, nobody expects the Volvo, and I mean NOBODY, and I want to keep the Volvo.
Man in a brand new Golf GTI slowed down at the top of a big hill in the Vosges after I despatched him on the uphill to give me a thumbs up and a big grin, and a couple of bikers waved me through on a tight and twisty forest road after I caught them up unintentionally. Basically it's really easy to drive "quite quickly" without even trying.
