My wife totaled her 2003 Volvo S40 yesterday, and walked away unscathed.
Not a scratch on her , and only very minor aches and pains on the dreaded day after.
It was single car accident, no one else was hurt either.
She used to have a :cough: go cart :cough: Miata and it always made me uneasy that it was a damn death trap.
It took some convincing, but with the help of her family I talked her into the Volvo. Great decesion. For those unfamiliar, the S40 is the litte Volvo:
It\'s also the least expensive, so you don\'t have to shell out an arm and a leg for a little quality. We\'ll be getting her another one just like it.
"Volvo. They\'re boxy, but they\'re good."

How & where did the accident happen?

The only pics we have were taken with Bridget\'s cell phone. If there is way to upload those here, I don\'t know it (surprise, surprise).
How & where did the accident happen?
How- Bridget drives faster and takes more chances than a drunken NASCAR driver and it finally caught up with her.
Where- Route 9 New Britski en route to West Farms Mall
"Volvo. They\'re boxy, but they\'re good."
Actually, the new ones aren\'t that boxy.
Been a Volvo man for ten years now and would not change. First of all, a 440 saloon, then two V40s, the estate/stationwagon version of the S40 (now replaced by the V50). The current one is a diesel too - 46-47 mpg on a combined urban/motorway cycle - also means I pay lower road tax as the car is greener.
