get the volvo for sure... i have the same one but green and it is great... and the company will fix shit for you even if it is out of the warranty and its SAFE
jetta. no doubt. then when you stack up your ice you can upgrade to a A4, or an allroad. Then when you stack more ice, go with the 911, Carerra, or Ceyane. You know, keep in the family.
I have never driven the Volvo but i have both of the other cars and have to say i was very impressed with the nissan, the motor seemed to have guts and it felt way more luxurious then the VW. That being said I am a fan of the dubs as well and would say go with your instict as they are all very nice cars and no-one posts a question without at least somewhat of a gut feeling, they just hope for reassurance, so what one do you want?
well for me i enjoy driving so i would go with the car that i enjoy driving more, which sounds like the volvo, if you think its more agile and has a better engine.
