850 T5 Dealer Promotional film

Post by June »

I thought you might enjoy this film. I was looking for the Promotional film for the first R that got me so excited in 94. Cars just got better and better every year up through the early 2000s. Now they just get more gimmicky... Even brands i thought would never give in like RR have. Recently I went car shopping and nothing built in 2020 could compare to my Volvo!!! Not even a new Volvo...

I gather most 850 enthusiasts on MVS are younger than the cars, or were not buying new Volvos back then. Volvo made wonderful films promoting their cars. I always asked to see the latest videos while I waited for service work. June

My Volvo cars owned
1989 740 GLT ordered
1994 850 4door standard shift ordered
1996 960 ordered
1998 S90 ordered totalled after 3 weeks

2002 S80 T6 ordered totalled
2004 S80 T6 dealer stock car and current car owned

Super, super cool videos. I'll watch all of them in full today or tomorrow. I love this historical stuff.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!
