Btw Roger Moore will always be Simon Templar to me than James Bond.

@MrGaryGG48
@MrGaryGG48 2 года назад
This tendency for the "modern" cars to go to lower and lower aspect ratios is just stupid on real world street cars. The taller the rims are that usually indicates lower and lower aspect ratios. I don't know when "Old School" kicks in but I have a 2001 BMW 330xi that came with 45 series tires on 17" rims. On decent pavement, they handle well. Unfortunately, the real world these days doesn't run on decent pavement! In the last 7-8 years with this car (I've had it for 11 years) I've replaced two rims and two tires due to unavoidable pot holes. The roads are pitifully maintained and we keep hearing that this "new bond issue" is to fix the roads. Politely, that is a load of "creative fertilizer!!" When I see a hot new car on the street with 25 or 35 series tires, I just wonder where this guy thinks he can get out of town and actually drive that thing? Track day... that's the best answer, track day!! 🤔😒

Thank you Jay great video, this brought back so many memories for me, I worked for Volvo in Canada in the late 80's at a dealership in Winnipeg who had the franchise since the early 60's , in 1988 we got to 1800's 1 P1800 and 1 P 1800ES both fuel injected and both 130 hp from factory, great driving cars, the 2 door was 3100lbs and the ES was 3300lbs , it was right on the I.D. Plate when you opened the drivers door , the P1800ES was owned by a photographer who worked for the local newspaper, and we were selling it on consignment for him it was that Volvo light blue with black leather interior and was in original immaculate shape , never winter driven and serviced by Volvo mechanics only, he was asking $10,000.00 for it and was worth every dollar and i had the pleasure of driving it several weekends that summer and was lucky enough to sell it in early September in 1988 for him for $9500 which was a good value for a car only having just over 41,000 miles and this photographer is the reason i got into photography as a hobby right to this day , thank you for the great memories and an awesome 1964 Volvo Cyan ❤

P1800 is one of my favorite cars. I fell in love watching the Saint. The 1800 with dual SUs was bullet proof I had a 144S that had that engine and put 100000 miles with only replacing the water pump and clutch. Beautiful car wish I could afford one.

I love it. I also love the color. The Volvo R models brought a similar one 10-15 years ago with them and it simply looked perfect. It's the "if I can choose the car color that's the color I'm going with". Distinctive, neat, fun.

I will never be able to afford it. But it makes me extremely happy to see it being cared for and loved by a complete petrolhead and car-nerd as Leno! My current Volvo V70 is going to be cared for loved and I'll drive it until it can't be sustained anymore, since it's V70 it will probably outlast me :D My dads family is from Småland and Hans Bååth lives in Småland, cool! edit3: They have not moved the release for the hood ever! :D
