I'm currently driving a 1.6-litre diesel (yes, USA - these exist ;) ) Volvo C30. Had it for about a year now, and it's brilliant - although it's not the quickest, it gives me over 60 mpg, and I don't have to pay road tax, due to the carbon emissions being so low. Reliability hasn't been the greatest, but it's not a new car by any standards (ten years old, with 97,000 miles) - but the build-quality is typically Volvo (really solid, so far).

Came to the Volvo from a 2.2-litre diesel Civic, which was probably my favourite car. I will have another one of those one day! I've had my driving licence for almost 8 years, and have had 8 cars... Not through choice, particularly, haha! Could talk all day about them - but, the short story is, I'm sticking with the Volvo for a bit!
I like Volvos.

I don't anymore. Flipped my truck a few weeks ago. Got on a bit of loose gravel and somehow lost control, got pulled to the side of the road where I hit an embankment then everything went black, and my buddy who didn't have a seatbelt on was literally above me. After that I heard a bang and some scraping as I felt the vehicle roll back on to it's tires. I looked up to see a window that didn't appear cracked at first then my buddy asked if I was okay because he said he had to slap me awake which is weird because I was awake the whole time and I never felt anyone touch me. Anyway we got out checked everything, I had to reassure the guy it wasn't his fault and basically we walked about half a mile to meet his folks then ride back to where the accident was where we would wait on the police and look at the damage.

Wasn't even sore the next day.

I will try and post a picture in a few, having some sort of error right now.

Still got the Audi I posted on page 3 and I'm treating it to a full valet & detail today... my detail guy is spending all day on it, can't wait to see the results later.
