Volvos in Robberies!

5 10 2012

Volvo is famous for its high security,
maybe that’s why a lot of thieves use Volvos when they are performing robberies?

To start off we have the biggest cash robbery in British history, the “Securitas depot robbery”. Sadly enough the Volvo S60 was only used to look like an unmarked police car…

But we continue to watch this clip where we see a real car chase. The guys in the Volvo XC90 have robbed the Bank of America and try to get away with the money. But it seems as the robbers did not want the money for themselves, the hurled it out of the window while escaping. This is like Robin Hood 2012 except they ended up getting stuck in the traffic…

Some people might think that a big car is good for its luggage boot, but there are some robbers who prefer something faster and smoother. In this case we see a Volvo S60. Three armed men entered the Central Coast Federal Credit Union at the main street in Salinas, forced employees to the floor and escaped with an unknown amount of money in a gold painted Volvo S60.
