Pretty sure that started last night on c4, Guys Garage
✌️😉✨
Guys garage. 9pm Mondays channel 4. It’s class
You even watch TV he was on last night doing the volvo racing lol
Yeah as soon as I posted this I saw a advert for it 😂. But we still need more guy Martin. I’ve started to watch all he’s videos on blu ray and RUclips again cause there’s nothing on tv haha.
Yep, never mind Top Gun when we have Top Guy!
"Great thing, 800 horsepower, blows up all the time, beautiful thing, love it"
I want Guy to meet up with the lad in Sweden that is building the Volvorghini
Welcome to Sweden guy!
I must come and see you drive the folkrace and shake your hand.
Gonna be epic! 🤘🏁
Gotta love guys enthusiasm 👍👌
Volvo for life !!! Love to love em , good and proper Guy
I confess. I love Volvos. I've had 4, almost 20 years of ownership. My fave was a 240GLT manual saloon. I wish I still had it.
2:38 Guy can hit vocal frequencies that could command a sheepdog 🐑🦮
Had a 123 gt in British green, best car I ever owned.
It is stated that if You participate in a folkrace you have to sell your car after the race if anyone wants to buy it. It is a fixed, low, price ( i think it is around 600 pounds) and thats just so no one builds a monster to win every race. The aim is that every one should afford to race and the skill behind the wheel should be what matters.
The fixed price is 8000 SEK ~730 EUR ~620 BGP.
ANYONE (randomly selected) 15 years or older, including Guy, are allowed to buy ANY car that has participated in a race day.
ALL partcipants, including Guy, are OBLIGED to sell their cars after a race day, if ANYONE (over 15) is willing to pay the 730 EUR.
(Edit: Apparently you are allowed buy our own car IF you happen to be randomly selected as a buyer for your own car.)
@@matseriksson8177 Du glömde nämna att man får lägga x antal bud man anser på sig egna bil för att "köpa" tillbaka den vad man anser den är värd och hoppas att chansen är tillräckligt stor kontra sina bud..
The two Volvos Guy has are awesome...especially the old one, but I'm kind of surprised he doesn't also have a P1800. That's the one I always admired even back when I was a kid. I especially like the station wagon (estate) version. Maybe called the P1800 ES? I can't remember.
They remind me of Jensons untill I found out they were designed by Jenson now I'm not so sure. The E stands for estate and the S stands for Sweden
@@666t P1800 was designed by Pelle Pettersson, a Swedish (mostly) boat designer. P1800 where manufactured by Jensen in the UK in the beginning due to lack of capacity at the swedish facilities. Later they moved all production to Sweden, partly because of quality issues.
Owned over 20 Volvo's they are just great cars.
The older one's that is.
245 Best car they ever made.....True story.
Love Volvos as well and this put a right smile on my dial! Cant wait to see Guy in “svensk folkerace”, proper with the classic 245 - lighter than the 700/900 but still a tank
Need to get me a manual 850 T5 before I pass, until then I hope to see more videos of it on here
Just saw that it’s already up, cheers for that!!
Mate of mine has a concourse 164 mint I love Sweden the country the folks the lot ,snow no problem not like here these folks know how to handle it mainly sideways 👍👨🏻🏭
Love the old Volvo Guy has when you think 800 H P , no wonder it keeps blowing up , but style wise love it , watched his first ( Guy Garage ) and can't wait for the next episode, incidentally I drive a Volvo estate had it over six years and love the look of them I've done over sixty thousand miles in it but in total it's done 146000 and it's still as smooth as ever and very reliable its only a modest 1.6 Diesel eco but I've towed a trailer with motorbikes on it for my son to track days to Mallory park and Anglesey did the job I would like the bigger one though , love estates.
Yes! I want to see more👍
That old Volvo is beautiful
Perfect 'teaser' video. Can't wait to see where this project goes!
You can have my 240 estate buddy.
Guy that Volvo looks great.
Love my Volvo’s I have 850r and V70 T5
A dad figure on mine. Lee he says guy is great to be around👍 you gotta understand his lingo lol
Superb guy is my type of bloke
Well then we'll keep an eye out for you and your Volvo at Borlänge folkrace circut this coming season! 👍🏁
Nice and we need and wish videos in 60fps HDR resolution clarity quality soon please and Sound in full HD 3D Stereo.
Tried to watch guys garage on sky go but the channel 4 programmes don't work properly on there. Watched until the 1st adverts, then there's 4 minutes of adverts which takes at least 10 minutes to get through as the adverts don't load properly. I've had this problem everytime I try and watch channel 4 on sky go
i have to admit i do love my v50 t5 manual. its coming up for 14 years old, and as i do trips abroad i'll probably have to move it on in a couple of years as its tricky to get breakdown cover once a car goes over 16... no idea what to replace it with, i love that it is such an unassuming car, but has a decent kick when you poke it... there arnt many petrolheads that dont like a rapid volvo
He'd marry a Volvo..... great line
...quando le macchine avevano PERSONALITA'.
I have a 1984 240 dl with 86,000 original miles on it . I wanna turn it into a drift car . Any tips or pointers would be awesome ?
We're can you watch the full episode i love Volvo s
Guy is my Volvo
I own 2 Volvos. I have a 945 FTT and an 1800ES
Let us know when you’re coming over here!
I’ve got a great folkrace track a couple of hundred meter from my house where they have ”folkrace festival” the biggest folkrace competition in the country
Geography teacher spec, second car bought it off a guy in Sweden 800 hp beautiful thing blows up all the time 😂
He'd marry a volvo if he could.
Ain't there a term for that sort of thing caraphilia ? Lol.
My very first....usable car was a 80 something Volvo which was my dad's really but he would let me use and customize however I wanted and growing up in the US in the early 90's meant whatever it was, it was slammed to the ground and had either Five Stars or the European BBS', my silver Volvo with Silver BBS' could drag a pack of Newports instead of going over it. Is it stupid now, yes, but at the time we would roll that bitch like it was a '50 Merc lead sled or Bentley. OMG the memories in that car, I just pray my son NEVER hears a single one 🙏
What language is it?
Volvo...er...lets see...brick sheet-houses, tanks...yes, they're solid always have been always will be.
Husvagnsracing!
What do Volvo think about Ann's beumont cases, ????? U. K
Germany,. Denmark / Sweden. ????
I owned a VOLVO 240 saloon, a very nice, comfortable, reliable, and safe car to drive, and very easy to service and repair.....
Get thet t5 racing guy and get it boosted too great show boss
Jammy basterd 🤣😂🤣 that's a beautiful motor. Love it 🍻
I know the guy that tuned that amazon.
I hated my little 340 GL only good thing it had a turning circle better than a London taxi
mate youve gotta go to sweden and hang with some dudes who got a volvo 740 GL 700+ horse power
Maybe a 1500+ volvo-engined dragcar is more fun.... a B230
OOOOHHHHHHH Fabing F...Lus!
Show me his car collection!(?) if he has one. And show me what he has, with photo, vlog, something. A racing interview was okay, but, I was just expecting cars. Maybe my mistake.
Wreckfest!
What happened to his old Nokia phone? - lol
Sell merchandise: Tinker On - Guy Martin
Awooga
I have 6, pre 99. Wife’s, getting to be a bit of a problem.
Guy!
Save these Volvo's! They are an extinct species!
Do not destroy them in demolition races!
Particularly the two-door cars.
#teamseas....................................
Ahhh, proper rallycross with cars built in sheds and not by multi-nationals with stupid budgets :D
Hi Guy
You should really try a Saab 900 even better than a Volvo! Give it a go please.
Terrible weak gear linkages on them, you don’t want to be fighting to find 3rd gear in the middle of a race.
I Marry a Volvo more reliable then my missis
Anyone wana swap this Astra van for a Volvo v70 r 😁😂
I think guy needs to stick to his motorbikes.
🤣
God that voice over is so macho pretentious.
Move over edd china.mike brewer....the main man is far better
👎👎
SAAB 9-5 AERO is sooo much better than a 850 t-5🇺🇸🇮🇱🇳🇴
I have a Volvo C70 with a 1000 horsepower😁👍
Den abkhjulsdrivna med 2JZ ?. fotade den i Gislavad på stora träffen i våras. jag som körde orangea S2000 då - ( nu såld)
I've owned a couple of 850t5's , auto Estate and the manual saloon,
Very underrated cars
The characters of Guy and (older) Volvos goes well in hand. Humble, understated and awesome.
And here I am treating my 240 like a precious thing…
That in my eyes is a Supercar.
@@organicwest Maybe? It still doesn’t make over 400 bhp…
@@FoolishPursuitForce It has it's other charms. It would be similar to a Mini parked beside a Ferrari, the crowd would be surrounding the Mini.
Guy is just "mint".... The UK needs more unhinged individuals... 👌👍
Glad to see guy is still off his head and doing things we all wish we could What a treasure this fella really is He keeps me sane He keeps me wanting to live No ego No nonsense just
a chap in a shed a bloody big shed these days and good on him Stay safe Guy and stay insane it keeps the rest of us sane L.O.L.....
I went through 4 Volvo 240 as a kid loved them, crashed one at 70kmh into a wall and we all hoped out no problems had a 740 and thought it would be smart to put 10 bottles of octane booster in it, ended up having to take of the heads in the rain and take them to a machine shop, got some funny looks from the bus driver but aye when your young and dumb, long live the Volvo!!
What happened to the head? Warped cuz of heat or blown the gasket?
Ive had my "04 Volvo S60R( manual trans) since "05. Ive done a few upgrades over the years.Only 122k miles on the clock. Probably the best car Ill ever own!
The Swedish dude that built the AMAZON Volvo that Guy bought is a true monster and so well built...their are great videos still on YT on this car racing supercars..like a F599..amazing..
Guy should come to Gothenburg and visit the Volvo museum(And the Volvo factories of course) before it's taken down.Saab museum is only a 1 hour drive away from the Volvo museum btw.
Excellent, look forward to seeing more. Legend 👍👍
I want to see Guy with a souped up T5
“Gonna wear me ABBA T-shirt “. Haha, love it!
Have too come too Vimmerby then,Big Folkrace event here in the summer ✅👏🤩🏁
Was this filmed 4y.ago lol
Volvo never made a T-5 GLT
Wox made this art sleeper Volvo, he previously worked for Koenigsegg. He also made a very artful Mc to.
Why is it soo slow ...lol combustion engine is dead and slow
I’d love to see electric cars being wrecked in these races.
Imagine trying to pull a cheers bye
I’ve owned 8 Volvos over the years. I wish I could have 7 of them back now.
'and Guy's addiction has led to him owning two Volvo cars'
Yeah great, we really need this infuriating salvage hunters voice over narrating every frigging program on tv. Who is this guy? why do tv production companies think it's necessary to put his patronising voice over a on everything!?
you don't love the cars you work on in the shop unless they're great cars.
Why. The. Fff, has all royld houses a racerdriver,. With all that education, network,. Is. It all. Media up/ out???
nickname for the 850 is sossecontainer = socialist container
Guy Martin, how do I get a chance to travel to your part of the world and hang out and race cars !!???!!!???
Guy get a S60 Volvo
A brave and able guy - but he can't help his voice so tend to watch his TV/videos with the sound muted.
The 2 Door Amazon has a set of beautiful clogs on it.
Should go to Finland :) Kids start start racing there before they get their driving license :)
Guy u r the best @@@
nice
I've owned: 144S, 242, 240turbo, 245, 745 turbo intercooler, 440SE, S80T6
