        Unfortunately drove one in my uni days (for free). Crap Electricals. My Boss has one now and has suffered the same fate!

        One of the best things I saw ever on the roads was last week when one Volvo beeped at another Volvo driver on the road! Didn't think they were capable of detecting poor driving!

              Is it that important ? It's still Mercedes Benz.

                I don't care if it's Mercedes Benz laxative suppositories. The years and dollars are really all that matters.

                  I didn't know that volvos were fitted with horns. Or steering wheels for that matter.

                    Is there any link to this announcement as yet? Can't see anything about this online as yet (other than from the best source of Bulldog info - Woof)

                    Anyone in the know care to share more other than the OPs reference to a pulled down story?

                          Shane Delia put a post up on FB announcing the partnership, including an official image with Gordo, Bevo & Bont. Took it down but it escaped into the Internet wilderness before he could.

                          Now Stevo has confirmed there'll be an official announcement so I would bet my house it's all legit.
                          Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                            Thanks Comrade.

                            Just saw the Stevo segment on Seven Sport referencing the Mercedes sponsorship and showing the above mentioned picture with Bevo, Bont and co.. Gordo and a Mercedes staffer both holding up our jumper showing the Mercedes logo on the lower back side of our jumper.

                            The 2018 reference across the two jumpers probably implies that the arrangement kicks off next season.

                                Or they really, really like Josh Dunkley and Fletcher Roberts.
