Take a little trip...Volvo Overseas Delivery

Alright, well its not a little trip...its Volvo Overseas Delivery. A FREE trip to Europe AND a great deal on any new Volvo. Here is a story shared by Pam Peffer, one of our Overseas Delivery Specialists. She had the chance to experience OSD for herself:




This month, Volvo is launching the All New 2011 Volvo S60. As part of that launch, Volvo invited me to participate in the Volvo Overseas Delivery. After all of these years of selling the Overseas Delivery experience, I was going to go to Sweden to see it for myself. My husband Todd and I were one of the first to drive the new S60 T6 AWD and let me tell you - the car is AMAZING and you will NOT be disappointed!

I have been telling my clients for years that this is the greatest way to purchase their Volvo, but now I was going to be able to see for myself. So is it really "too good to be true"? From the moment I called Corporate Travel to make the necessary plans I found out just how professionally this whole process is handled. They took care of all of my flight arrangements and our hotel stays as well. Our Travel Agent even suggested that after my stay in Gothenburg, Sweden, that I should spend a few more days in another city. Stockholm didn't work out, so we decided on Copenhagen, Denmark.

The highlight of our trip was that we were treated to what all Overseas Delivery clients enjoy while on their trip. These benefits include free tickets for 2 on SAS Scandinavian Airlines, free entrance to the Business Class Lounge at Dulles International Airport, complimentary transportation from Gothenburg's Landvetter Airport to the hotel, Volvo Factory Tour, Lunch of Swedish Meatballs and so much more.

Gothenburg, Sweden, is a wonderful city. Most everything is within walking distance and the people there are extremely friendly. Everyone speaks English and they even drive on the right side of the road. On our third day there, we took a short bus trip to the island of Marstrand. A short ferry ride over to the island took us to a completely different world. No cars allowed on the island, cobblestone everywhere you walked, and a fortress that sits high in the middle of the island. After our 3 day stay in Gothenburg, we took the high speed rail to Copenhagen, Denmark. We chose to travel this way so that we could enjoy the scenery. It was a wonderful train ride, very affordable, and we were even served lunch and all of our drinks were complimentary.
Our stay in Copenhagen was amazing. We stayed in the Nyhavn district which is the famous canal with the multicolored houses on both sides. It was like one big party every day with locals gathering with their beers while they cheered and clapped for all of the boats coming in to dock. The best "tourist" activity is the harbor tour which takes you through all of the canals of Copenhagen. Our hotel, Nyhavn 71, is a famous hotel that was once a warehouse for the Oriental Spice Company. Built in the 1600s, it was renovated into a hotel with all of the original fir beams still exposed.

I highly recommend the Volvo Overseas Delivery experience. You get a complimentary trip with hotel stay and the best souvenir of all - a brand new Volvo!

Here is your Volvo Safety...

Image
What you see above is the result of an accident between a tractor trailer, a Volvo XC60...and another tractor trailer. If you think the end result is devastating, just be aware...the driver and passenger of the Volvo XC60 walked away from this accident with only minor injuries. This accident happened in Brussels a couple of days ago, here is some of the report from their newspaper: A car containing a mother and daughter crashed into the back of a truck. The vehicle disappeared completely under the rear end of the heavy truck. To make matters worse, a heavy truck crashed into the Volvo XC60 from behind. The result was a lot of scrap. The emergency services had to rescue the two women from the car, who were trapped for more than one hour. The fire brigade had to cut off the roof of the vehicle before being able to set them free. The two ladies must have had a guardian angel as they got off with only minor injuries. They were taken to the hospital for a routine check up So wh

How do I get one of those red plates?!

Image
It's a question we get every now and then. "How do I get one of those red plates?"...those red plates you see on various Volvos in Central Pennsylvania are actually Swedish Tourist plates. And the way to get them is to purchase your next new Volvo from Lehman Volvo through the Overseas Delivery program. In addition to being the BEST way to purchase your new Volvo, the Overseas Delivery program provides you with complimentary airfare for 2 to Sweden, a complimentary hotel stay and yes...that little red plate. Its another benefit to the program...Volvo provides you with complimentary European registration and Insuraunce for up to 14 days. And with that, your vehicle becomes a tourist vehicle. Once it reaches the US, Volvo makes sure that your red tag stays with the car, so you have a very cool and unique souvenier to remind you of the time you drove your Volvo in Sweden.
