To promote the upcoming film Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Man’s Chest, Volvo is having a treasure hunt competition called “The Hunt.” The goal: find a Volvo XC90 V8 buried somewhere in the world. Oh, but this is not just any Volvo XC90, from the press release:
The buried one-of-a-kind, pirate-themed Volvo XC90 features a variety of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest-inspired elements, including menacing graphics from the film, black leather seats, custom painted 20 inch wheels and more.
The contest begins next Monday and will require a map available from Volvo dealers. There will then bea series of online puzzles to solve leading to the car.
Update: For anyone interested in seeing what this car looks like, visit this site.
Come on down to Superior Volvo, StateLine and 435 in Kansas City. We have the treasure maps and the special code to start the hunt. You MUST be in possession of a map to win. It is TRUE!! Volvo has buried a Pirates of the Caribbean Themed XC90 somewhere in the word. 3 winners from the US, and one each from Japan, Great Britian and Australia will be flown to the secret location. First one who finds the XC90 owns it.
YoHoHo, come to Superior Volvo to get your map!

Having trouble with riddle #4…figured out the “Blue” connection, but can’t figure the tentacles/glue thing…Help?
Your on 4? I can’t figure out 3 with the stupid wine barrels!
I am having trouble on the ladder…anyone?
Wine Barrels?,,,Go bak to the bottle ye found (where ye dripped rum on it for co-ordinances)…Look at the date on the bottle(roman numerals) covert that to normal numbers and then walk along the barrels till you see the correct dated one,,,arrg
Yes, the ladder is killing me. I have counted up down and tried to find a relationship. I do know that only six sets do not change their positions. I can find no correlation to their values and positions. Also, I am preplexed as to whether of not the key held an extra clue. When you position it, it gives the password, but also there is an extra cutout for the letter “C”. Does this “C” mean anything other than I may be average.
I have rolled the dice to 12 and nothing happens????What am i missing????
I’m just starting the hunt, anyone have any clues to the dice thing?
The ladder has me well and trully shafted, i have tried all sort’s of thing’s,needless to say, I am retarded
no-one has helped me at all with this ladder crap,what a load of mothers
Even my son and his girlfriend cannot help me with the ladder problem,they are both at collage.God help me,what a pair of thick gits
I also am having trouble with the ladder puzzle. I am slowly loosing sanity. Please help my low IQ.
I don’t live in the country or anything (i live in a city of 50,000+), but the nearest volvo dealership is 150 miles away. I’m not interested enough to drive that far just for a map, but i would like to compete. Anyone got any ideas? e-mail: lotrblue@yahoo.com
For fun you could use the word “blackpearl” but in the end you need the map to compete in the final leg.
Correction: The pass word to start the puzzle is “Black Pearl”
