Wow, well done!

Definitely an acquired taste but I do personally love the styling on it. But then I'm a freak who hates the styling of TVRs, Alfas, etc., so clearly I can't be trusted.

Think that's a 1973 model, the one I was slowly revealing was the 1971 model which was even more pointy at the rear end:

That one beats me. Recessed headlight looks very italian. I'm sure I recognise that wrap-around indicator but I just can't place it...

I have nothing against its performance, I was merely commenting on the styling. Admittedly not quite a Volvo but it certainly fits into the 'box on wheels' genre of car styling! (No offence intended, all this is somewhat tongue-in-cheek!)

But it's a four-door saloon, are there any really stylish ones? (in the same price range, with the same reliability and the same performance)

None taken :D
