The subject of 200 vs 700 has been covered many times in the past. Having just bought a 245DL I can understand the attraction (but objectively it is the inferior car). That said I am looking forward to tweaking my 245!

I've disagreed before about the DNA, I've written about this in the club magazine...the 900 has less Swedish DNA than the 700 simply because it was not designed by Jan Wilsgaard.

And I disagree about the 700 being a bland design, when it was launched it was Volvo's most audacious design and sold very well.

Jon.
