"Volvo's Overseas Delivery Program also presents a great opportunity for our customers to see first-hand where their car was built and gain a unique perspective on our commitment to safety," added Magnusson.

What's more, those who take delivery of their car overseas aren't limited to a rigid preset travel itinerary. They don't even have to pick it up in Volvo's home city of Goteborg, Sweden, but of course they'll miss the factory tour and the opportunity to test it out around the automaker's private track.

"If they choose, owners may take possession of their new car in Paris or London or any one of the other eleven major cities in Europe and tailor their driving vacation any way they like," commented Magnusson.

While the brand states flexibility makes their overseas delivery program so popular, they also offer seven pre-planned "Discover Scandinavia" driving tours. They range in length from 3 to 11 days, according to Volvo, with each drive promising wonderful adventure and marvelous scenery. Accommodations sound enticing as well with quaint country manors on the list, as well as inns and full-service hotels.

The best part are the prices, which range from USD$500 per person for three-day adventures up to USD$2,515 per person for 11-day treks.

Volvo offers overseas delivery on all of its 2004 and 2005 models, including its recently introduced S40 sedan and V50 sport wagon, impressive XC90 sport utility, sporty S60 sedan, recently revamped S80 sedan, commodious V70 and XC70 Cross Country wagons, and stylish C70 convertible.
