I absolutely love this car, because it is the Ultimate Sleeper. A wolf in sheep's clothing if you will. And then, there's the sound of this 5 cylinder engine...
@@ninehundredbr8385 thank u..i love the 5spd wagon.... Its awful zoommy...next gear... I love it... Mechanic said... Its an old car not worth putting a caliper. And axel on. Sure inspectio s coming and its gonna nut me.. But me gf and ohr 3 kids will have our necks wrung all summer yea!!!!!!!!!
In the 90's I had the chance to drive A LOT of 850's and V70's, T5's etc... That engine loves its fuel, but it sounds out of this world. Very good engine, it had some real Cojones.
@creditcrew yeah and the wagon actually had some aero advantages over the sedan and some rulings around aero was the reasion they could not use the wagon after a while :) silly but man the pr stunt of driving a wagon on track in the 90's is such a volvo decision.
@@volvo9051 the chinese volvo ? yea thats trash shit indeed for more than 12 years.Bmw smokes that shit in their pipe all day.A real brand not concern bs that was sold in the chinese market.
@nurburgringfan, Congratulations for the car and your skills. What kind of suspension and brakes do you have on your 850R?... mine doesn’t brake at all!!!
Very nice. Congratulations. I dont can drive at that best. Only one thing i am confused about. I owned a 850 six years long. And it has 70% wheight in front, 30% back. And you striped only the back. It must (in my opinion) change the driving to the (lol) "dark side". Does this really works ? Just interested because somedays in future i will buy a 850 again for sure. Only question is as for fun (your car) or for use (original).
It seems a bit weird to see ultra fast racing cars on the track at the same time as members of the sightseeing public are cruising round in their normal saloon cars. Very sketchy! 🤔
I wonder what's the weight of your car with a driver? I've thought about taking interior out from my T4, but not sure how much weight could be shaven off.
nurburgringfan can I ask what has been done to the beast... engine wise... and what has it cost in total for the car and build... and thank you for the video.. I love seeing these beat on others... this is such an underrated engine...
Its interesting to see what happends when the limitations are in the car, not the driver. If you had a car that matched your driving skills, you would perform miracles..
Good to see another proper old school car showing the world what there reali made of. They got cars right in this earer just been making them worse ever since. Oh and take that BMW 🤣
I passed him in the lap before. See it from the happy side ;) It's just for fun. If I had an M4 he had no chance! I do laps for fun in my good prepaired 24 year old familycar with 366xxxkm.
