Volvo TP21

a very cool vehicle, a PV800 on steroids. I really like the solid green with the bicycles in the first article.

I have had two Volvos and loved them both. My dream Volvo is the PV 544.

I had a 1980's 240 turbo. I wish I'd bought the 4 door and kept it as a good dad's car. I've always wanted a P1800 but I like those older sedans too.

The 144 I had was a great car. Before the days of heated rear screens, it had ducted air through the sills to below the rear screen instigated with the Demist function, a thermostat that didn't just open and close but when cold, directed the coolant around the valve stems for more rapid heating up and dual fan/aux belts so that if one broke you had a second to carry on. Clever Swedish thinking.
