    Hello from Phoenix, Arizona. When I was in high school, the first Toyota 4x4 trucks started arriving in the US. I believe it was around 1979 or 1980. I wanted one of those trucks SO BAD. I hung out at the small Toyota dealership in our town all the time. But I was a student and even though they were only around $10,000 US, I couldn't come close to owning one. Over the years I've owned several small trucks, including Isuzu and Mazda and 3 Ford Rangers, but never a Toyota 4x4. I really love your videos, thank you for sharing your experience.

    Wonderful work and a wonderful car. I always wanted the V70 since they were new. I remember reviewing them as a car journalist in the 2005-2006 and I couldn't afford them then. I totaly stand behind the claim in the vid, that if you want V70, buy one now. I did last summer and after 25 000 km I'm still happiest man on the planet. I switched from another brand from a similar car I had from new and the twice as old V70 is just on another level. I love the car, which is no surprise, cause I'm no stranger to volvo's. I had 240, 740 and 850 and V70 is just a logical step forward.
    But again, I must say - very impressive work on the car. I coudn't believe how beautiful you were able to make the ashtray you brought home... :-)

Worse than this volvo, but your attention to detail is exceptional and reminds me of my own. I also picked up a few tips from you! Great vid! Now I need to clean the hell out of my daily driver from everything that's collected in it over the winter.
    As for a car that I've always wanted - there are so many. But for now, I'm going to say a Buick Grand National. I doubt you ever had them there, so you might have to look them up to see what i'm talking about.

    You did an outstanding job on cleaning that! That thing looks showroom again!
    I've wanted a Volvo V40 T4. Unfortunately, they're quite hard to get by as they're old cars and people often trash them. Once they got cheaper, they get in the hands of people who want a fast wagon, but then absolutely neglected them and here we are..
    I found a nice model online and went to take a look. It looked nice, ran well and the interior wasn't completely trashed. The headliner had sagging but that always happens with S40's and V40's. I was willing to forgive that.
    Unfortunately when we started driving we immediately noticed something was off. There was excessive wind noise, the car pulled under acceleration and braking and generally didn't feel stable on the road. The second thing that struck us, is when we closed the rear doors they didn't close with a satisfying slam, but rather with a dull dud. They didn't feel right when you opened them too, almost as if they didn't fit properly. You probably already guessed it by now... We opened up the boot and it didn't align with the body of the car, the lid was all bent and there was obvious damage.
    The car had been in a collision, and the repair work was shoddy. Such a shame, it was a nice car to look at but it drove like a wet mop. The ad was up for months. I'm not sure if eventually some poor soul bought the thing or he gave up on selling it.
    I now drive a Mazda 6, but some day I still want one of those Volvo's. I'm hunting after S60's and V70's now. Noone wants them, so they're easy to come by in good condition. V/S40's are a lost cause.

    • @crashk6

      @@xXKatieFace I guarantee You, that My car, right now, is very much cleaner than the state that car started out in. I didn't state a dirty car = an unwashed person, I posed the question how the previous owner could stand to be IN that mess. The fact the car was allowed to become that filthy allows one to draw ones own conclusion of personal habits, which is what you clearly did, and why I didn't feel the need to draw or state any such conclusions. I did equate allowing ones vehicular surroundings to be in that state to allowing ones house to be in that state, and I did so for the reason that, one DOES have a trend of following the other; Both from a clinical psychological standpoint, and additionally from within my experience of people. He did an amazing job cleaning up that mess, nobody likes a filthy Volvo.. especially when on display in public.

    The car I never managed to get was an E28 535iSE. Like you when I was younger they were peanuts, I even had one that I found that was really special but the owner turned down my offer and it went to another person. I think it was with Portway Cars or something like that. I still have the photo, it was loaded like the Volvo and was deep blue with beige leather. What a weapon and soo rare to come by now. Great video, keep up the good work. Would be great to see a video of you buying something at CoPart and see how the process works. Just started watching your channel, now a subscriber. Great work!

The car I want now is one of the last VW Beetles with the 2.0 turbo called an R-Line here in the USA. I want the sky blue colour, hard to find. I've only seen one for sale in that colour. Plenty of lesser models in sky blue but not what I want. While I was watching this I thought exactly what you said. Those carpets came up like new. Good quality. Thanks for another top video.

      Twig it’s not that men have more pride in “their vehicles”, it’s because that woman has a busier life than you could ever imagine, between running a household, raising kids, cooking for men’s dumbasses, doing all the laundry and putting kids to bed, not to mention running all over kingdom come to ensure all of her family’s needs are met, all while quite possibly holding down a job herself. Cleaning out a car, or spending money you obviously don’t have, if you’re driving a 15 year old station wagon isn’t practical. Women make the world operate, show some respect, and don’t be a misogynist.

      Twig yes, it means someone who dislikes, despises, or is strongly prejudiced against women. And your assertion that the filthy car had to have belonged to a woman was a pretty stereotypical and prejudicial thing to say, and derogatory toward women, so my accusation stands.

    • @twig3288
      @twig3288 5 років тому +1

      If you actually read what I said, it was a factual statement and bore no disrespect whatsoever to women as you seem eager to imply. It is an observable fact is that men tend to take more pride in their cars than women, and women tend to take more pride in their personal appearance than men, and if you had any experience of waiting for a female partner to go out anywhere or if you had noticed that any social activity revolving around cars is almost entirely male based you would know that.
      My observations are not in any way derogatory apart from in your own seemingly confused mind.
