Have just waved goodby to my old V70R - kinda sad after 5 years. Used her for all the usual family stuff, as well as transporting loads of DIY gear, plus the occasional trip to the dump!.
However most unusual was using it as a hearse!! Briefly went to funeral of old friend down in the valleys of Wales. After ceremony in church up in valleys we were all going to the crematorium down near Swansea. We followed official cortege along M4 until it suddenly slowed and pulled onto hard shoulder - hearse had broken down! I walked up to see what was wrong, and on realising it was terminal, offered my services! Our dear friend was duly loaded into the back as the traffic streamed by (she had to go at an angle as the coffin was longer than the flat bed) and I duly led the cortege the rest of the way, much to the amazement of the crowd at the crem when we pulled up!!
On a lighter note, just been asked to use the RS6 as a wedding car for some good friends getting married in August!
So, what have you used yours for??

Quality story! I think I'd want to be delivered to my resting place in something a bit more special than a stetched Granada!
