Is Every Slow Car Fun To Drive Fast? | Volvo 760 GLE Review

I use this 1989 Volvo 760 to break down whether or not there is any truth to the saying "It's more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slowly"
And in order to find out properly, I have to drive a 2016 Golf GTI, a 1981 Peugeot 505 and a 2001 Mazda Protégé MP3 as well!
Thanks for watching!
The Volvo 760 is similar to other Volvo 700 series like the 740, or the 900 series like the 940 and the 960

ive had a honda prelude, mitsubishi lancer 2003 2.0 and a bmw 320i, all pretty slow cars which are amazing to drive hard and they all loved it. especially the lancer, that thing hated being below 4000 rpm

3:35 They did.
8:30 The 700 series itself is not a heavy car. My 87 is suprisingly lighter than my 03 passat. And idk about underpowered. SOme higher trims nad some powerful engines.
And it's not really cheaper than a mercedes. When the 760 launched in 1983, it was expenzivvvve
Tho the PRV v6 engines in these are horrible. Same crap they put in the delorean. The best you could own was a 760 with a B230ET 182hp turbo i4 engine, with the m46+od 4 speed manual. I think some 740's made up to 200hk from factory, these were only export models tho. Which made them more powerful than their successor, the 900 series.

It was a very nice car, I really liked it! It has less than 130,000km on it too. I sold it to someone as their first car and I believe they are still enjoying it today!

@@antesosic1600 I enjoyed it, was smooth and moved the car quite well. But I didn't own it long enough to ever test its reliability haha
