Re: Anyone bought a Volvo with Swedish pickup/shipment to US option?
My wife and I did this about 10 years ago. Hotel was nice and everything went as described. Did some sightseeing in Gothenburg and a day trip to Malmo and Copenhagen using the SUV. We had a great time. Gothenburg is cold in the winter, would suggest spring visit if you can.
