    Not really it's more annoying for example trying to enter some roundabouts are awful because of the slow pull away.

    In my eyes the build is far superior like for example the cab on a adl feels and sounds cheap the on the evora was solid and good quality. Performance wise for me it's night and day the evora does not have the adls very slow pull away so it felt very responsive and genallery a nicer place to be.

    I would imagine trent would order longer variants of the evora even though tge 10 8m length one we had was a fun size

    990 has noe finished its trials on the comet and has been handed back to volvo.

We can only hope some get ordered...

    The difference between going up the a38 and going via little eaton is only about 3 - 4 mins at most. We have always said sharing the route with the nines from Derby to Ripley does nothing to help it and hinder it as we are timetabled 2 mins behind a 9.3. The route can get very busy north of...

    750 keeps going into derate ( a emissions version of limp mode) and also the heating does not work so if this is proof that volvos don't like sitting around for a good while I don't know what is ahaha

    Yea that was me on mansfield road ahaha decided it wanted to be limp mode but after some work at depot it was back out and worked for the rest of the day. You have to expect some niggles when a volvo has been sat around for a while they dont like it ahaha
