sofia and i were thinking about trading the car in for another. we went to look at a ford mondeo automatic diesel but it was nothing special. after the test drive we were just glad to get back into our car. volvos are really nice.
this leaves us with the problem of our trip to spain in the summer. we need to get a towbar fitted on the car so that we can stick all the stuff in a trailer. i have ebayed the roofrack and roofbox. what a waste of time! no space at all in those things!
volvo quoted £372.54 to fit one which is frankly outrageous. a local towbar specialist quoted £200 which seems more reasonable, although i have been trying to investigate what is involved with fitting one myself. there is a towtrust towbar on ebay for £40 but it looks like a bundle of wires that i wouldn't know anything about.
also trailers aren't cheap. i wonder if my dad will let me nick his?
