My Car's got a Bloody Noddy Hooter - Page 2

My '04 c60 2.5T AWD Volvo is near perfect aside from two issues.

1) There's only 2 cup holders, in a four door car. Yeah I know it's a direct competitor to the BMW 3 series business car, but dammit, some people car pool to the stock traders office.

2) Turn radius. I have driven heavy rescue equipment that have better turn radii. Parking and three point turns are a joke in this thing. With all the amazing handling it has (and it does drive like a dream, and fast if I ask it, in any weather, I don't need to shovel my driveway), you go to park and over shoot by half a space as you can't turn that tight.

I just had to play this through twice at my son's insistence; it's probably going to become an earworm over the next few days
