Hi Guys Which Insurance company are you using to insure your Volvo. I need a new quote on my car soonest as insurance and road tax expirying next month. Not happy with my current one which is Newstate as premiums have gone compared to last year. Reason being, many claims from SM lately. Got a cheaper quote from tenet insurance by almost $500 with zero excess but the draw back is that you must send only to their workshop such as 1. Delgro engineering 2. Comfort Automotive 3. Star Autocentre 4. Kan Fock Sing 5. Ah Lim Motor company ( who's Ah Lim ? ) 6. Sng Ah Tee 7. Su brothers Except fro no 1-3, I have never heard about the rest of the workshop and I am almost not prepared to send my car in to someone who have absolutely no knowledge of fixing the Swedish Babe. Any reccomendations or ideas?

With TB gone, seems like the Meatball Place very quiet. Any other ReVolvolutioneers in MCF? Very lonely here leh.......

Statement from Volvo Car Corporation concerning electromagnetic fields in cars Source: VCC We have great respect for people's concerns regarding the data on electromagnetic fields in cars, which has been reported by the media, and we take them with utmost seriousness. We would therefore like to clarify the following: There is no scientific evidence today, which shows that electromagnetic fields in measured values can cause illness. The research world is deeply divided as to whether these fields can eventually have an effect on humans. There have been no documented cases where people have become ill from electromagnetic fields in cars. All electric/electronic equipment generates a field of force. People are subjected to fields of varying strengths from a number of sources: under power line pylons, at a computer, in front of the TV, from clock radios, under fluorescent lamps, by using mobile phones and in the car. Electromagnetic fields are measured in microteslas (uT). Electromagnetic current in itself is not dangerous. Teslas and microteslas (= millionth parts of a tesla) are not a measure of the danger level of the radiation. This can be likened to a light meter in a camera, which can decide whether a person has been out in the sun for too long or not. Frequency of the electromagnetic field is an important parameter, which effects how an outer field can pass through the skin to nerves and other organs. The electromagnetic fields in Volvo cars have low frequencies and there are considerably higher recommendations compared with, for example, visual display units where the electromagnetic field lies at a higher frequency and consequently recommendations on limits also lie at a considerably lower level. There are different recommendations on limits. Even in these cases one must differentiate between the type of environment and which frequency the electromagnetic field has. The EU's ministerial counsel has sent out a proposal for recommendations surrounding electromagnetic fields, where considerations in Sweden will be co-ordinated by SSI (The National Institute of Radiation Protection). The levels in Volvo cars are 10-100 times under the recommended limits, which the EU has sent out. These recommendations concern electromagnetic effects on the head and chest. The main source of electromagnetic fields in Volvo cars lies along the floor. This field subsides very quickly at a distance from the source. According to the Swedish car magazine, Vi Bil
