Volvos are pretty sober (if apparently boring to drive), but I am lucky enough to own / drive a Mercedes E class,also too safe to drive to be fun - 540NM torque and apparently capable of 155MPH, but I drive like a Grandad, which has a lot of safety features invented by Volvo, and so I owe them one (despite the Mercedes blurb about inventing the airbag yadda yadda - I think it was Volvos baby ???).
This is pretty NICE for free, dont judge it until you have tried it. i would say its one of the better of the other smaller free racers thats been out there recently.
Well as a Volvo owner I must say 'huff_digger' that Volvos are quite poor handling and you have no sense of speed in them. At least in my C70 80 feels like 40 and the turning radius is utter crap.
nice for long drives though

I disagree, quite a good fun racer. The Force feedback is up to SiMBin's usual standard and the older cars are suitably slidey and ragged to drive. Not bad for a freebie.

well i know it's free but.... there is no sense of acceleration, no sense of top end it just moves at the same rate, engine sounds are good, handling is poor, but link that to the no sense of speed, graphics are very dx7, tidy but almost pastel in colour, wishy washy and drained, the car models and sense of scale is way out, feeling very clostrophobic, link that to the poor handling plus no sense of speed and you have a poor advert for volvo, which is a shame because the car in question, the s60 looks in the front end video quite an exciting looking car. shabby.

Man, you guys have no idea what you're talking about. I couldn't vouch for the game because I didn't play it but Volvos are damn fine cars. Not so much known for their high end cars but more their road cars. They're reliable, not too expensive to maintain and most of them perform rather well.
Get a grip, kids.

yeah these piece of s**t cars are horrible. at least put in some real cars like some CTR's or ITR's. nobody wants to see these piece of s**t cars in a racing game.

IMO sh1t like this shouldn't even be called a "game".
