VOLVO is chasing BMW in the image stakes with the new S40 (pictured) and V40 models from Drayton Motors.
The cars allow customers to have a Saintly image while having their cake and eat it! For the latest Saint film starred a striking C70 Coupe, which further enhanced the sporty image of Volvo as a rival to BMW.
What's more local dealer John Taylor can 'tailor make' V40 and S40 models to customer requirements, right down to traction control for directional stability and maximum road grip.
Performance in these cars can be tweaked to give nought to 60 mph, with a top speed of over 145 mph, figures similar to Volvo's BTCC racers.
Yet they remain economical and very safe. To find out more on the bespoke range of Volvos, contact Drayton Motors, Clatterbridge.
