What would it look like .
I know what your all thinking its started as a concept render but the made one and is sitting at a volvo museum . Well introducing the volvo v70 ute Clearly a bit of Ford and holden in it . The designer even admitted it . But i think it looks great. |

yeah theres definitely some of Henry's and the Generals parts in that. I would argue more Ford than Holden tho. You can tell that because it looks fantastic. Knowing Volvo that would probly be quite a good car. Id buy one, if it was reasonably priced and didnt handle like a boat. Would be awsome as a AWD, with some sort of reasonably large V8 under the hood.

Coupe 60 wheels and all? Looks nice though, much nicer than the 245 wagon converted into a ute that gets around Adelaide.

That is gorgeous.. something Ford Aus could pick up on design cues.
What's with the FG's massive rear flared guards? |

If that had the Volvo V8 and awd or even rwd (Volvo xc90 styles) I would very well priced I think there would be quite a few floating around in the future. Not everyone wants a ford or a holden and this would be a good compromise. Or would be good if you just wanted to be different!
