Volvo bought by Chinese


Ford has agreed the sale of Volvo to Chinese firm Geely.
It was bad enough when Ford bought Volvo but this is surely not going to see a return to the high production values and attention to detail that made the marque one of the greats.
After the news about the demise of Saab earlier in the week the Swedes must be suicidal - although apparently that's an urban myth
I've had a Volvo 360, 740s, 760, 850s, T5s, XC90 and V70s but this is it. I'm off to Mercedes, a 90s S-class, unless there's an old V70R around of course.
