"Really?" she said. "No catches."
"No," I said, "there's no catch. If you buy a new Volvo from Turner Volvo, if it's part of the program, you and one other person can go."
"Oh, 'part of the program'. There's the catch." she said.
She's so cautious, but... ok, here's the exact wording from Volvo's website (I got it on June 7th):
Purchase any new Volvo within the Volvo Overseas Delivery Program and you'll discover a truly unique way to buy a car, as well as a truly unique way to travel around Europe. Here’s what’s included:
• Two round-trip tickets with Scandinavian Airlines*
• A free first class hotel night in Gothenburg, Sweden
• Savings off the U.S. MSRP on U.S.-model Volvos (varies by model)
• Free shipping to your U.S. Volvo retailer
*A Peak Season Surcharge of $150 per traveler applies for deliveries in June, July and August, with a maximum charge of $300.
How Does Overseas Delivery Work?

The most important message is this: if you are in the market for a Volvo, perhaps it would be worth your while to look into this program, and if it's right for you, make your purchase this summer to take a vacation in the process. If you have any questions, call the dealership at 916-488-2400 and speak with a Sales Specialist.
As you might imagine, shopping for a Volvo is different than shopping for other vehicles: there's no sales pitch or come on whatsoever. People who buy Volvos don't appreciate that approach and we know it. So speak with any Specialist and just ask them about the Overseas Delivery Program. Who knows, someone might end up taking a European vacation because they came across this post or had it shared with them by a friend.
