Mhlawumbi ndiphinda ndiphinda-phinda, kodwa iblue blue yale Volvo S60 Polestar ayishiyi ntloko yam kwaphela...
Kwiintsuku ezisibhozo ezidlulileyo bendibhala inqaku eliqinisekisa ubukho bolu hlelo lukhethekileyo kwiHolo yaseLos Angeles, kwaye namhlanje, amakhulu abantu abanethamsanqa babe nethuba lokuyibona le kopi ikhethekileyo ngokusondeleyo. Ewe, ndiyavuma! Ndiyabamonela aba bantu… Kodwa ndinomona ngakumbi ngenenekazi (okanye inenekazi) elihlawule i-$300,000 yesebe elisebenza ngokuphezulu lakwaVolvo, ngentsebenziswano nePolestar, ukuyila le S60 “yobudenge” bubudenge.
Njengoko besenditshilo kumanqaku angaphambili, andikholelwa ukuba iVolvo izibeka “njengebalulekileyo” kwaye inika lo mthengi yedwa. Akulunganga ukuvala ukuveliswa kwenye yezona moto zibalaseleyo zohlobo, ukuba ayisiyiyo eyona nto ilungileyo, ukushiya umthengi (nokuba ukhethekile kangakanani) onwabile kwaye unelisekile ukuba ne-S60 kuphela sonke esiphupha ngayo ngenye imini…
Kodwa ndicinga ngayo, ngesivakalisi endisandula ukusibhala ndicinga ukuba sele ndisiqondile isicwangciso somdlalo esisetyenziswa sisigebenga saseSweden. Kumanqaku amathathu endiwabhalileyo malunga nale Volvo S60 Polestar, bendihlala ndikuqaqambisa ukungonwabi kwam xa kunokwenzeka ukuba le nkanyamba yaseNordic ingayi kuveliswa. Ngamanye amazwi, ndinika ukubaluleka kakhulu kule nyaniso "elula" kwaye, ngoku, ndivusa umdla ngakumbi kwiimpawu zesi "siqhamo esalelweyo". Ukuqukumbela, okulungileyo, kwenziwa ngcono nangakumbi ngokungabi nakufikelelwa nakubani na.
Sendiyithethile loo nto, ndiza kuyeka ukondla le opera yesepha kwaye ndiya kuthi, ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo, "iVolvo iya kuvelisa ezinye iikopi ezimbalwa zale S60 Polestar". Ukuba oko akwenzeki… kulungile, ukuba akwenzeki oko, intlonipho kunye nothando abanalo iVolvo kubathengi bayo kufuneka inconywe. Nangona kunjalo, iselukhetho olubi.
