Don't take offense - it's a joke!
VOLVO GOES RENAULT
Following another five star showing from Renault in the latest Euro NCAP crash tests, former safety champ Volvo has decided to give the French manufacturer a taste of its own medicine. 'During the 1980s only Swedish cars were associated with safety,' said a Volvo spokeser. 'But now the French have stolen the only quality we used to sell our cars on back then. So, if they've got our '80s USP, we'll have theirs.'
Spies in Oslo admit that they don't know enough about Scandinavian geography and have gone to the wrong country. However, spies in Gothenburg say that engineers at Volvo have hatched a radical new product plan inspired by 1980s Renaults such as the 9, 11 and 21. 'Whilst Renault is being safe we will show them,' spat one Swedish insider. 'We will be bland, derivative, dull to drive and we will erase all trace of quirkiness and character in the misguided hope that this will give our cars more appeal.'
'Hang on! That's been our policy for the past ten years,' said a SAAB spokesman, huffily.
