Live from Gothenburg, Sweden...
...the new car is finally here! Just in time for M.'s arrival which is tenatively scheduled for next week, the new car (and that wonderful new car smell!) have arrived. And, as an added bonus, I was able to secure a set of the new EU plates, so we're no longer going to be issued those with the 'USA' designator: they will now have a 'D' for Deutschland instead, which goes a long way to making you less conspicuous around town. (Which is how it should have been from the inception, but I digress...) Anyway, I went down to Heidelberg to the baby Volvo up before the dealership even opened this morning...and took it for it's first venture out onto the autobahn. Verdict:very, very fun! It's a zippy lil' bugger! Just can't wait 'til M. gets to see it, too!
