Scotty you are wrong about the P1800 and Pininfarina. P1800 was 100% Volvo design and construction, however Volvo had a design contest and the winner was Fura in Italy. Later it was revealed that the P1800 designer was Pelle Petterson, the son of Helmer Petterson that was the project manager at Volvo! So Pelle had attended under covered in the contest. At the start of production 1961 the P1800 was built by Jensen Motors in England but the quality was so poor that Volvo decided to move the production to Sweden 1963. The Swedish built cars got a new 1800S label, the Jensen built had the P1800 designation.
In Sweden, just to get a driver’s license, you need to drive on snowy roads for the test.
What’s the diagnostic tool u use Scotty ?
Where else would be able to purchase your Think Tool Platinum S20 scan tool for a little less money than from the manufacturer?
How can a person know if an engine is a interference or not a interference engine?
I always wanted a swedish made volvo. So interesting and solid
I’m Canadian but I’m thankful for Scotty !
Zhejiang Geely Holding Group bought Volvo in 2010 from Ford.
Downside? Famously dull interiors.
FIAT First Italian Attempt at Technology
that engine isnt great.
I own Renault Megane cc 2004, body is in even better shape rust vise 1.6 gasoline engine, doesn't take oil at all.
To bad china bought Volvo the year before this car was made!!
my volvo c30 t5 2011 was more expensive to do maintance than my bmw 3 series, and those cars share a lot of parts with ford which isnt that good
7:23 Scotty's nephew is Carrot Top?!
I don't know about America but Volvo parts are really expensive. Especially if you're out of the warranty / service plan.
European cars are better than American cars
P1800 has to be one of the best looking cars made, that welding tip at the end really works an old mechanic friend of mine always got cars sent to him to get the stud off and even locking nuts he got them off the same way proper weld proper nut bingo success
Scotty have worn out Ford E350 van have wheelchair lift. First bought e150 very lightweight van. I learned fast but my 2001 V10 is worn out 243000 miles. Yes have blown spark plugs striped threads from aluminum heads. I know this engine but tell me how to make it longer. Synthetic motor oil from 2nd oil change. Could not get synthetic till 2nd oil change sold on synthetic motor oil. You are great Scotty what do you think?
Manual transmission is indeed indestructible and easy to take care of it. So lovely.
I have a bmw 320i xdrive I change the oil and fluids it had lasted me. I live in Canada I upgraded to the winter package it has been a good car.
I’ve owned a few Volvos. Great cars.
Rust is the oxdidizing process. Aluminum also reacts with oxygen, but the top oxidized later protects the rest of the metal. I am not sure what you mean by corrosion. Corrosion happens with Iron which basically rusts!
I unfortunately disagree scotty, had a 2.4 Volvo scotty and it was a mechanical nightmare, I hung my fighting gloves on Volvo, bought a N52 330i E90 and I have never seen a solid car, EVER!!!!
I'm wondering how Volvo has avoided the pitfalls that plague other European cars. Mercedes and BMW both make great engines says Scotty, but they suffer from other problems such as over engineering, etc. How is Volvo better than the rest of the continent?
