    Love how Tiff suddenly pulled up in that Alfa , btw the 320I and the 850R is the most powerful road car here compare to the rest on the track

    • @warummussmeinnameangegeben6502
      @warummussmeinnameangegeben6502 6 лет назад +11

      Problem is that sadly in 1993 there wasnt a 850 T5R or R. So in the video its a standard GLT I think. Not even a Turbo or stock sport dampers. Just your dads Volvo

    • @AnthroGearhead
      @AnthroGearhead 6 лет назад +2

      Well uncle Needell says its got potential so its going to be fine , this one is a 840 , but still a solid car

    • @warummussmeinnameangegeben6502
      @warummussmeinnameangegeben6502 6 лет назад +4

      You mean a 854.. yeah sure it has potential, that car would be miles better with the stock sport dampers, swaybars and 16" wheels with bigger tires. The engine is one of the most powerful there with 170 hp

    • @AnthroGearhead
      @AnthroGearhead 6 лет назад +2

      But nearly 1700kg , wont call it powerful , 854 or 240 cuz im sure theres a 840 that looks like a base model 850

    Xedos 😍

  • @bangboombang1
    @bangboombang1 Год назад +2

    I can't understand why they choose the heavier Mazda Xedos instead the better weight/power ratio Mazda 626 GE in the Hatchback trim with the 6 cylinder engine. I have seen some of them racing in Taiwan and they were quicker than the Xedos and the Mazda Lantis.

    • @legoferrari14
      @legoferrari14 8 месяцев назад +1

      They chose the Xedos since it is powered by the same family of 2-litre engine found in the Touring Car version.

    Comments section getting a little confused about the Volvo. There's no such thing as an 855 or 840. This one would of been and 850 2.0 or 2.5 non turbo, its on a L reg so Aug 93 - Jul 94. This the facelift was introduced at the beginning of 94. The turbo versions didn't come out until Aug 94.

    Two things: I realize more & more just how much rubbish Jeremy speaks on a consistent basis & just how terrible his fashion sense was & in some sense is. That's why I love Tiff. Not only does Tiff know what he's talking about, he has class. My older brother had the pleasure of working with him for YEARS on Fifth Gear, & the one time I met Tiff, he came across & nothing but a down to earth sort of guy, very polite, knowledgable & truly knows quite a lot about cars & racing. As much as I loved meeting him, I would have loved to meet Vicki Butler Henderson instead 😁
