Volvo 5 cylinder youtube channel.

Post by ZuluR »

Hi guys.

As a hobby project i am making a Youtube channel about the volvo 5-cylinder.

I am not exactly saying how things are, i am more trying to give the information I have and give you the reasons for it so that you may make up your own minds and also apply the same knowledge to other (eve non-volvo) cars.

the videos are at time a bit "long" and i babble and digress alot :) But i try to improve and all feedback is welcome.

Videos were definitely interesting Kristoffer. Your customer spotlight write up on ipd was a good read too. Starting off ownership with a road trip is always a blast.
Always first off the line, while all the cool people are still staring at their phones.

First video of 2017 :)



And happy that i was finally eligble on youtube to get my channel a "shortlink":
https://www.youtube.com/c/volvo5cylinder

And I created a FB group for my videos that got 500+ members in 24 hours.
https://www.facebook.com/Volvo5cylinder/

(considering that I have 200+ subs on Youtube this is a huge "inspiration boost" since i get more feedback)
