Volvo: all the characteristics of the Mercedes except for style and
pleasure. ****


**I recall reading a motoring magazine, when they reviewed the Volvo 740
Turbo (ca. 1985). They were impressed with its dynamics, but remarked that:

"The Volvo 740 has the styling panache of a tool shed."

and later:

"The best thing about driving a Volvo 740, is that you're not looking at the
outside. This is one seriously ugly automobile"
