1962 Volvo 121 review from Netherlands
"Amazon ruled the world in 1965, and rules the world in 2005!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1992. Amazon wouldn't start anymore. Fixing took 11 years.
General comments?
Due to the classical looks and the great performance, everyone looks at you.
In the Netherlands it's hardly affordable to drive this car.
Volvo stills pulls my attention, but thanks to financial problems Citroen is now becoming my car.
