Just did a full suspension refresh on this thanks to @FCP Euro. More videos to come!
TheTopher no one replied so here
The suspension sounds horrible like it is a brick on wheels. Was that the point to make it handle really well but destroying ride quality with a wonderful rattle box sound.....🙄
@@robertblack6630 The suspension does have it's strange sounds, but don't let that fool you or distract you from its intention: performance. The car actually is a brick on wheels, which is why is would sound as such. I think Toyota or Lexus may be your car mate.
FPC euro is the best! Other than that one time I asked them to hold A 850 heater core hose connector for in store pickup and they accidently shipped it like 5 min before I arrived. Lucky me, it came the next day! 😂

90's cars are the best. They're kind of a mid-term between technological/"safe" cars and pure car feeling.
Bruno Valle e36 m3 comes to mind lol
@@k0edby22 Not only this kind of sport car. Even the hot hatches were cooler and had a better feeling. Today you need a 500hp Golf GTI to have a "certain feeling" (danger on the curves?), when back in the 90's you could have fun with a Opel Corsa GSI with modest 100hp, or a Peugeot 205 or something like them.
It's certainly not about power. It's about the feeling.
Bruno Valle give me a CRX, EF/EG hatch with B16A1, and I’d be so happy 🥺😩
My thoughts EXACTLY, and I'd add that this includes the 80's too but usually with a little less "safety"
And if was before everyone put 20 inch wheels on everything so you can actually drive these cars on public roads and have a bit of fun with them. Not to mention better ride, quieter, cheaper, more manageable on the limit etc.
My god it’s so clean!
Ikr this is heavenly.
I was just going to write the same thing!!!!
It's way too clean for being a Michigan car
Exactly what I wanted to say, like brand new maan
@@Karmy. this is a Michigan car???
volvo 5 cylinder engine is what dreams are made of
I have one!!
Yes it the best sounding engine
Volvo are the only cars I have
Until the PCV fails, it's in the most inaccessible location possible.
It’s a monster, miss driving the T5, an animal absolutely brilliant!
That gotta be one of the cleanest cars ive ever seen actually being driven
Volvo made shit cars dont buy volvo!!! I got volvo v40 and its broke after 6 month
@Tony MexicanPop VOLVO IS SHIT BRAND!!! I'LL BUY BMW 520d soon as i can
@@phoenix1453 very bold claim there
PhoeniX complain about Volvo reliability.. then say you’re buying a BMW. That’s hilarious
@@phoenix1453 Volvo is shit brand? And you think 520d is any better? And I am even a BMW fan
That's one of the cleanest and neatest engine bay I have ever seen, new or used car
I have to drive to Seattle in the morning and I’m up at 3 am watching a dude drive a Volvo
You spend your time wisely
Hahaha sameee except I gotta head to Marysville 😂😂
Tommorow you'll definitely feel sleepy, dude
Is it a 3am thing? Im watching this at 3am lmao
But not an usual one....
What madness is this? That engine wasn't even that clean when it left the factory.
Speed Zero lmfao Ikr
As a swede🇸🇪 i must say that's a fine machine you got there sir! Sounds so good to.
As German I love swedish cars like Volvo koenigsegg 😊
One of the great European sedans...owned one for 6 years...magnificent thing.
Love these classic reviews. More please!!
Forza Horizon 5 looks real clean
Biały sheesh.. never seen such an innocent joke trigger someone like this before 🤣
Biały relax, what the hell did Forza ever do to you!
Biały r/woooosh
@Biały Are you stupid or just idiot?
@Biały "That's the joke"
Loved this car when I was a kid! Back in the late 90’s, I remember going to Lee Volvo on the South Shore of Boston with my Dad to pick up his new black 1997 Volvo 850 R Wagon. It was an automatic. He loved it, as did I! The only issue he had with it that was somewhat serious was the windshield wipers at 100k miles came loose and had to be fixed twice. The entire driver side assembly came loose and flew off the car on the way to MV. In 2004, it became my car for college, and it had 109k miles on the clock. I got a Yakima roof rack and tinted the windows. I miss that car so much! Good to see one of these again!
Game Devs need to take this videos for reference! the sounds, the "camera"(head) movement, the details in the signal sounds, bumps and these things will make driving games more inmersive than any graphics
This almost looks like a game
I was about to ask what game that is before looking at it carefully
@@dennispnut SAME
You can’t actually think this is a game
Blake Harrison At first it looked like a really good looking game and when I saw the thumbnail of the video I actually thought it was a game :D
I was like 'Is this new Forza Horizon?' ... Click ... 'Aah okay'
A car to outlast the human race
It's not a 7 series, silly.
@@NoBody-bn1kr if it was it would be an endless money pit by now.
You clearly haven't met the '94 Celica yet.
M RO I S U Z U
Social Justice Warrior I know it’s a meme but one of my close friends drives a 91 Celica. Things a goddamn tank, it’s had a slipping clutch for the last 10k miles but he’s been too lazy to get it replaced. Somehow the car keeps chugging along lol
I miss my 850R more than any other car I've had before or since. Mine was of course an automatic, but I lusted for that 5-speed swap. LOVE the sound of that 5 cylinder!
I miss my 850R. Had the m56H swap too.
Chris Boultinghouse You can always buy another 850
It’s a good sleeper car
Had a ford S-max once. It had the Volvo 5 cilinder. How much i loved that sound. Revving to 4000 and than full throttle...eargasm
You can definitely tell when the Volvo community finds a video they can all relate to;
- complimenting the 5 cylinder greatness
- commenting on how clean this old beast is
- noticing the error lights turning on/off because that’s what Volvo’s do.
Great video.
This 850 r reminds me of my dad’s Volvo. My dad had a ‘97 Volvo 940. I remember driving around with him in that thing for ages. I learned how to drive in that car. I miss it so much!
Nearly 12 minutes of heaven. And now I want a Volvo.
Damn I wanna live where this guy lives, it looks so quiet and calm
Shilou Oh thanks, I gotta check it out for sure now lol
@@Corey2base I'm guessing after you took one Google search into Detroit you threw your computer out the window in an attempt to save your life. It's a failed 3rd world dystopia.
I HAVE THE DOCUMENTS ur moms a iRobot Roomba 960 Robot Vacuum- Wi-Fi Connected Mapping, Works with Alexa, Ideal for Pet Hair, Carpets, Hard Floors
the roads look trash tier though
Bro you don’t wanna live in Detroit, but some of the surrounding areas are very calm and peaceful, but not Detroit
I was just appreciating the exhaust note 😍
It's great seeing old cars in great condition on the road! This is how we 'save' our planet, not by using enormous resources (creating more co2) to create these so called green cars. We need a huge mindset change when it comes to personal transportation, not fake solutions.
Keep the old bodies and when the engines all blow and parts too hard to come by get them ev converted
Jesus Silva I agree
You're right. The culture of waste/disposable mentality is a big problem for the planet. Its also a big reason why companies are making less quality goods compared with before. Keep your cars, your watches, your clothes for longer--no need to have the latest thing all the time while the planet chokes on waste.
Look in Cuba or former Sovietunion, they all drive cars from the 60s and they are still in use, I'm sure they manufacture new parts too.
This is a game
Wow - this thing is insane!!!
Volvo + 5 cylinder = YES PLEASE!
LOVE IT
I literally started crying when I saw the cleanliness of the engine bay.
Thank you! It's exactly what i needed in such dark times... the soothing sound of a 5cyl
This thing is immaculate! Such a cool and good looking car.
数年前までこの車に乗っていました。
懐かしい。。
日本のファンより。
I owned this VOLVO a few years ago.
I feel nostalgic..
From Japanese fans on this channel
私もRの赤のエステートに乗っていました、いい車でした。ただ、オイル漏れや様々な故障で泣く泣く手放しました泣
吉田山田
数度のクーラント漏れを修理したのち、オイル漏れと他の故障で私も泣く泣く手放しました。。
とてもいい車でし、また乗りたい車ですね;)
31 Tak50 やはり同じような症状が…
今見てもカッコいいですよね、また乗りたいですね
羨ましい…
Probably not Toyota 2JZ but they will do the job!
Gosh, what I wouldn't give for this car. Takes me back to my first ever car... 1994 850. Lost her life, totaled, a few months after I got her. Tragic. But this takes me back. Love this. Thank you for posting!!!
these electric cars got nothing on this! can't beat that 5 cylinder roar!
EVs suck
well they got fuel consumption on this lol
Laurent Dion depends on where the electricity used to charge the thing comes from
@@laurentdion9070 Sure, but when your Tesla model S needs a battery replacement, it's $10.900... Basically the price of a new compact car. Not kidding, look it up.
True ev are crap they have nothing in comparison to these gems. If some told me what would I choose between this car and an brand new Tesla I would defo go with this those car have no chance at all.
always fun to see how slow revving the engines are when in neutral, but they still pull like a train once you get it in gear, i love my volvos
slow neutral rev thanks to 600 ton dual mass flywheel 😅
@@Wilma5532 true, think the flywheel is about 12~13kg on my 240 and i changed it out with a 4.6kg one, car got allot more nippy after that xD
This was incredibly relaxing
We had 850 glt 5cyl 170bhp. The turning lights sound the exact same 😭😍
I am driving a v50 2.4L gasoline. My dad is running a v70 2.4 tdi.
The 5cyl runs in our blood I guess.
This brings back memories. Thank you! ❤️
this video should be called "sound tribute" the interior sounds are hypnotizing!
I Really Love These Kinds Of Simple 90's Cars.
I'm so happy that Volvo decided to produce their own 5 cylinder after their heavy use of Audi's TDI's.
Yeah, but the VW TDI's are nice to. I have a V70 2.5 Tdi I love it so far, it's my 1st car
@@iParty501 Yeah those 2.5tdi are pretty great to drive and also very reliable if taken care of. I had to sell mine 'cause previous owners didn't take care of it well and it was causing a lot of problems sadly.
@@Mucky_Muck Yeah, familiar story, had a budget of 2,5k bought the 2.5tdi for 1k and invested little more than 1k into it and it runs smooth and hope it will drive long :)
@@iParty501 Well that's a bit cheaper than mine was. I got it for 1,7k and invested probably close to 1k in repairs in about 12 months I owned it and it still kept giving me check engine lights and kept shutting off while driving lol.
Hopefully you'll have better luck with yours!
@@Mucky_Muck Audi Tdi is not reliable. You and iParty just got your car. You remind of those silly little Beemer owners that say thing like "oh, I've had my brand new bwm for a whopping six months now and have had zero issues, clearly bmw is very reliable".
Dude, get back to me when your little tdi polluter has at minimum 500 000 km on the original engine and turbo without oil leaks and then you can tell me it's reliable.
These kinds of videos are absolutely what the RUclips car community needs more of.
The algorithm knows what I want to see at 1 am
Wtf, it looks brand new. What a dream car!!! 😍
7:11 that just made me shake oh my god
You alright there?
@@1MykHyn I wet my pants
Wait, why?
@@starstencahl8985 the sound of the car
I like that because we live in a town it's called stock town and if we do that the police will shoot and Nets at us and car will flip over and we will die it will chain up the wheels the car will roll over and we will bleed to death
My grandfather has a Volvo 850 t5r and I always hear the monster arrive when he is visiting us
This POV is pretty much my everyday lol (96 850R 5speed swap w/ tune). Sounds and looks great!
Such a beautiful car, don't think I've ever seen one so clean except when they were brand new! Those 850 R models are gems!
Wow! I live here locally and I recognize these roads. Might've seen this Volvo cruising around
This was the first car I learned to drive in! Except it was an auto. My dad had his for 13 years. Glad to see you’ve kept yours in pristine condition! Such an amazing car.
Once again Topher bringing great content. That AV setup is perfect and makes these cars shine the way they should.
Lester Brown III 🙌
I like this kinda video. No talking, straight into driving. ❤️
Beauty and the beast, all in one. That's all I'm going to say...
bro your freaking driving is so satisfying
I love people who love their cars
The most incredible part of the cleanliness is that in Detroit the snow is relatively heavy every year. The fact that you keep rust/salt marks off is incredible. Beautiful car my friend! Cheers from Windsor just across the border.
I fall asleep while watching.
*SO RELAXING.*
What a unique sound... Volvo 5 cylinders... I NEED IT
I am about to buy s60 T5 with 260k km in it, not worried at all, Volvos are monsters, especially the T5 and R!
I'm all about American Muscle Cars and Porsches... But damn this Volvo is Legendary and i NEED one
1991-1999 best era ever in everything
There's something strangely charming about watching old cars from the 20th century be driven around. It almost feels going back in time and watching it as if we are in the same era the car is from.
I really like the interior
I used to be able to do this in my remote area of a very densely populated city. nowadays with more people moving in i can not anymore. but this gives me nostalgia. excellent work.
1:40 mint revving
Wow. Volvo is amazing. My Mom had one from the 80's era with turbo.
What kind of Volvo?
What kind of Volvo?
When others dreamed of M3s I dreamed of 850r wagons 😏
No joke, I've seen brand New 2020 cars at the dealer that isn't as clean as this thing🤨 dude, I love that you actually take the time to make these amazingly high quality videos, of your amazingly clean car for us to see! Keep it up, and drive safe🙏
Like just because it's Volvo 850 R. The inline-5-cylinder sounds almost like V10. My first car ever was S70, and while it only had 125kW it was still great.
Lucky you my First car has 55hp
My first car was an s70 as well
"only" 125kW
The amazing turbocharged 5 Cylinder Volvo engines. Flew under the radar, but performance car enthusiasts sure to be hunting for them
funny thing about the these there was a long period of time when their top speed was much greater than the speedometer could count up to in some cases you could bury the needle and still be accelerating up to 30 miles more. this was the case on the older ones since they used the same speedometer on the R as the regular model.
Wow, absolute perfection. Sedan with the 5 speed... sign me up!
The reassuring sound if a volvo 5-cylinder
The sound of engine is AMAZING 100%.
Cool car! Love that the highway looked like a ghost town, more enjoyable drive😉
This is fantastic, so good to see this was filmed like . . . 12 miles from my house.
Amazing engine sound. I love it.
A Dog Bitch how do you think it’s good
This thing is immaculate. My mom used to have a 1997 Volvo S70 5 speed and this takes me back
holy shit, this was so satisfying! Amazing car bro
These videos are the realest videos on RUclips these days.
i didn't know a car could be satisfying
One of my favs engine... Nothing better than 5 cyl roar!! And that car is just in mint condition, in all aspects. Kudos
This is true asmr
What a beautiful car! Volvo 850, one of the best ever.
Nice car!
But those raggedy roads can take a toll on that suspension, especially with those low profile tires..
I would not want to daily drive that thing on those roads...
Lol you are such a cry baby, these roads are like silk compared to the ones in my country, and i daily drive a volvo
As someone who lives in Metro Detroit (where this video is filmed) it is truly a curse to a gearhead. Makes daily driving the sporty cars we love far less enjoyable.
Yeah sounded pretty rough
i have a friend who daily drives a lotus, this volvo is rolls royce compared to that thing
It's Michigan what did you expect
The 850R is a really underrated car, it is one of the best sleepers ever made, only people who knows what it is knows! The yellow would be my color of choose! But damn this example is in a wonderful condition and the 5cylinder motor always sound soo good!
this but as a wagon. Dream car.
HardwareG33k 850r
V70R
nicccccccceeeeeeeeee
Молодець
I just bought this as my first car watching these videos before it gets here and I love it
Wow, you wouldn't expect a car this old to have side airbags... Impressive.
Fat Pigeon Volvos are known to be very safe
@@elmandarin1002 that's my point :)
First mass-produced car with side airbags standard!
The e36 BMW 3 Series also got side airbags in 97'. Not sure if this Volvo had them in earlier years though.
Also known as SIPS
I cannot thank this channel enough
Holy crap, this car is cleaner than a new one.
That thing looks brand new! Props to whoever took this good of care of this car.
Nice, soon I'll be eligible to give a POV drive of my beater.
That sound is legendary
Wonderful sound, wonderful car!
This Volvo 850R is mint, beautiful machine, Volvo for life.
Volvo 5 cylinder is aaaaahhhh, orgasmic hahahahaha BEST engine I've nevera had
WOW! mint condition! something about older volvos are just SPECIAL
I would trade my fiesta st 2017 for one this clean honestly.
you have to pay the difference
I never was a car person but holy damn this video made me feel things.
My thought when he opened the hood and showed that clean af engine bay
‘How is the f*ck is it so clean for a 27yr old car?!’
it's 23 years old
well it helps if you clean it regularly i clean mine atleast once a month i dont like to drive a dirty car
90's and till 2008 cars, are the best in design ...
when you opened the hood i was like
wo---WAAAOWW
I really like these 90s' cars they are amazing. And the video quality is super. Good job.
