The recently concluded Seattle Auto Show was a great success for us. We had a special Overseas Delivery Booth on the Mezzanine Level and we were barraged with a bunch of questions by curious people who were walking by, who were intrigued with the Volvo Overseas Program. Our Staff of Salespeople who cheerfully answered the questions, actually met some of their own clients, who had either bought from them or were currently considering another one to add to their family of Volvos, came away thrilled with the experience as they discovered that there many people who were unaware of one of the best car buying experiences one can ever have through the Overseas program. They enjoyed the fact they could educate so many customers at a large scale event such as this.
There were quite a few people who had driven a distance to see this event, ranging from the Hood Canal on one end to Samammish and Spokane from the other. In fact, even Bellevue and Lynnwood residents seemed to be mystified with Volvo's Program and some of them actually wished their local dealers were more forthcoming with information about this travel adventure, so to speak.
What they did not know was that Bob Byers Volvo has for the last 11 years been one of the top Overseas Dealers in the nation and is one of the few select Family Owned dealers left in the United States.
As a matter of fact they are currently giving away a 5 night vacation trip to Sweden free in a State wide drawing. Check out this link if you like or would want to participate in this drawing. This is a no gimmick straight forward promotion, so feel free to enter.

S 60 getting some serious attention.

S60 is really hitting its stride

Doesn’t seem that long ago we posted this blog entry:http://www.volvoblog.us/2011/02/28/monday-mornings-can-be-sooo-nice/
On October 25, 2011, Consumer Reports released an overall summary of their 2011 readers survey on Reliability. Here’s what they said about our S60:
Mixed results from EuropeGo buy their annual report, and see for yourself what we’ve been up to these past few years.
European models continue to be a blend of reliable and not so reliable vehicles. Overall, European vehicles’ reliability is slightly below that of domestic models. Of the 58 European models for which Consumer Reports has sufficient data, 37 (64 percent) scored average or better in predicted reliability.
Among European brands, Volvo ranked the highest at 10th overall. It was helped by the redesigned S60, which was above average in its first year.
Consumer Reports Annual Auto Survey Ratings are unrelated to Consumer Reports vehicle road-test results, but are a key factor in determining whether or not Consumer Reports recommends a car. CR only recommends models that have performed well in tests conducted at its 327-acre Auto Test Center in Connecticut, and that have average or better predicted reliability based on its annual survey. In addition, vehicles must perform at least adequately in government or insurance-industry crash and rollover tests, if tested, in order to be Recommended by Consumer Reports.
Full reliability history charts and predicted-reliability ratings on hundreds of 2012 models, plus a list of what’s up and what’s down, best and worst models, and a comparison chart of brands can be found online at www.ConsumerReports.org, in the December issue and in the latest Consumer Reports Cars publication, Best & Worst New Cars for 2012 ($7.99 U.S./$8.99 Canada), on sale November 15, 2011 everywhere magazines are sold.
Not bad for a brand new car. As of last month, we sold 15,799, putting S60 way ahead of all other other cars by sales volume. We just came back from a long trip and funny how many people looked at our Vibrant Copper S60 T5. Even a BMW owner gave us a thumbs up. : )
