#105 of 1593 Re: OSD by 1sttimevolvo1 Mar 10, 2004 (7:10 am)
lev,   I would have loved to do the OSD, but my wife will not set foot on a plane. I plan on getting my pilot's license and try to coax her in the air that way. By then we'll hopefully be ready for an OSD the second go-round!

isttime: sorry to hear about your wife's fear. That's too bad. It is still av ery safe way to travel, but I understand.   Lev: I'll be there in June, as well. June 29 or so pickup.

What a coincidence - my pick up is scheduled for June 29th as well. So, I would probably see you at the Visitor's center there.

We are going all the way down south to Italy through Germany, Czech Republic, Austria, than up to Alps and fly back home from Paris. Three weeks, 3000 miles.

Hello everyone, I am new to this board. Took my first test drive yesterday......loved it! Can anyone in my geographic area share/recommend their purchase and dealership experiences? Thanks!

There is no better experience in any geographic area than the Overseas Delivery program. The savings are incredible, roughly 10% of MSRP, the list of options is much bigger (you also can get an individual options instead of package - heated seats, or get the option that is not available locally at all - speed sensitive steering on 2.5T AWD) Volvo fly you and your significant other to Europe for free and gives one night free in a hotel in Gothenburg.   You also get unforgettable, truly VIP treatment at the Factory Delivery center, and been able to see how your car is built - is a life time experience on it's own.   I've done it once in 2000 for my S80, going again in June for XC90, and planning to do it again in a couple of years for my daughter's S40.   Look for the Overseas Delivery program at http://www.volvocars.us/FinancialServices/Overseas

and OCD is a short flight for you east coast folks (compared to what we west coasters have to deal with).   Then again, by flying over the pole, maybe our flight isn't as bad as I think it will be....   If you can't get an outstanding deal at your local dealer, then go for the overseas delivery, even if you only go for a long weekend.

lev & adp3,   My wife and I will also be picking up an XC90 in Gothenburg on June 29 (our 13 year anniversary). We bought our 2000 S70 through the X-Plan, and were prepared to do the same with an XC90 until I saw the information on the OSD. The OSD prices were about $1500 less than the X-Plan, plus the 2 free tickets and the night in Gothenburg. We could either give that $1500 to the dealer or use it as a nice start for a vacation in Sweden. We'll be cruising down the coast and back up to Stockholm, and then cutting across the Lake region back to Gothenburg. We looked at the OSD tour packages, but decided to plan our own trip (Countryside Hotels is a great resource of small select hotels and inns throughout Sweden). The only "catch" to OSD, of course, is that we ordered the vehicle in March and it won't be in our driveway until probably September - something our dealership stressed very hard (they wanted to sell what was on the lot). We didn't have the easiest time with dealership about OSD (something that is common, unfortunately, from what I've read elsewhere), but they finally came around. Now, we're just counting the days. Hope to see you both at the FDC!
