Welcome!  This site is dedicated to Vintage Volvo cars...mostly the models 122 (Amazon) and 1800 coupe (as driven by Roger Moore playing the TV character The Saint ), but also the 444 and 544 models...keeping them running, reliable, and safe while having a bit of *fun.  We are not affiliated with Volvo or the Embassy of Sweden.  Click on this link if you were looking for the Embassy of Sweden in Washington D.C.

If bigger is better, I guess they figured burnt to a crisp is better than roasted. Too bad, I like coffee.

 

...but it might be sponsored by:
