The audio in this video was recorded with in-ear binaural microphones. If you wear headphones, your mind won't be blown, but it will go, "woah, that's cool."
I'm also the producer for the Winding Road RU-vid Channel:

Here on TheTopher, I'm known for putting a camera on my face and driving cars. Whether it's about any of my personal cars or reviews on weekly press vehicles, the goal is to give you an idea of what a certain car is like to drive or live with. Most of my videos are filmed in POV, with my clothes on, and (for like the 5th time) with in-ear binaural audio. Which, if I haven't made it clear yet, is why you should wear headphones. Because of the whole "woah" factor. It's there, trust me. Try it, it's pretty nuts. Or don't. As long as you whitelist me on your adblocker I'm okay with whatever you do or don't do with regards to headphone usage. That is all. Oh and I guess you should also probably subscribe. Why are you still reading this, you should be watching the video. With headphones! Hah, had to sneak that in there one more time. Later!

I had a '93 back in '01. It was a 100% stock 850GLT with the 5 cyl./auto trans. I positively LOVED that car. It was red on black leather, never wrecked or damaged and was a one-owner before me. Did not have the sunroof, unfortunately. It had 280k miles when I traded it for '99 S70 (silver on lt. taupe, 35k miles and a $382 monthly payment). Liked it, too, but not nearly as much as my '93. Glad to see a fellow Volvorian who appreciates their boxy goodness!

This looks mint, especially the interior, it's absolutely beautiful. As a fellow Volvo enthusiast, and a lover of older cars, I much prefer your car to many, many if not 99% of modern cars. Also, I'm never selling my 1997 Volvo V40. I bought it for 300 Euro, THREE HUNDRED, and almost three years and many thousands of miles later, it still works great. I am amazed by the reliability and durability of Volvo cars from the 1990s.

Just purchased a '96 factory manual R for a great price here in Australia. The paint needs some attention but the mechanics and interior are perfect, complete with not one, but 2 full folders of service history. Not on the road just yet (waiting on a new horn and some tie rods) but so excited! Love your car.

Congrats Topher! I had a 98 S70 T5 that I loved, but the 850R is the one I've always lusted after. Hopefully the dash is solid on this one. Looks to be mostly unwarped and I didn't hear it creaking. That's what sadly made me get rid of my S70. The chassis was a bit too floppy. Now have an 09 S60 T5.

Great car. My first Volvo purchase was in December 2005. I treated myself to a 2006 V70R. I too plan to keep my wagon until it falls apart. I have the Auto 6 speed which was improved from the 2005 model. 126K miles and strong. A wolf in sheep’s clothing. It is fun to pull away from Bimmers. I’m glad to have become a Volvo fan. Enjoy your find/purchase.

I owned a 97 R from new. The two biggest things that drove me nuts about it, the thin sidewalls on the Volans and those stupid plastic dash mounts that broke the first winter. My 97 developed a short at the fan shroud wiring harness and the entire engine compartment went up in flames. All I could was get my kids out of the car to safety and watch it burn. Now I have a 5 spd manual base model 850 with 370k miles I use as a daily driver.

That's an exceptionally clean well cared for example. I have been trying to find an estate equivalent, but only seeing autos and Japanese imports. Well done! Out of interest, does that car have limited slip diff.? The reason why I ask is that I have heard the tyres screaching under acceleration a few times. I seem to recall the auto version didn't have LSD and since yours was converted to manual, I wonder if LSD was done or not.
