"2001 Volvo Gives Name to Island: Welcome to Volvo Island"
A 2001 silver Volvo S80 saloon has been sitting on a tiny island in Ottawa near Chicago, Illinois, for over a decade, leading to the island being nicknamed Volvo Island. The car was placed there as part of a contest by the island's owner, but the idea was abandoned due to safety concerns. Despite being on the island for around 12 years, the car remains in decent condition and has become a tourist attraction, with over 200 reviews and a 4.9 rating on Google Maps.
