[@robertlawrence2047]

Congratulations on getting your license Miss Involvo’d, and I loved the evil sounding laugh when you were going to stay behind the tractor

A cuppa tea and involvo’d life is great 👌🏻

The look she gave when you were describing how dodgy the steering rack is was brilliant

[@alexismeraz5796]

Yay 🎉

[@fhwolthuis]

Congratulations Miss Involvo'd! And congratulations on your beautiful new place. Amazing workshop 👌🏼😀

[@Involvod]

Thanks Frank! I'm really looking forward to the possibilities it will open up!

[@dbt2787]

well this is far better than that shed in Berlin with the mouldy old mattress outside🤢😂plenty more space & power which is good. And welcome to the road Miss Involvo'd!

[@Involvod]

Definitely! This is what I always dreamt about for my old pair, so glad it's finally a reality!

Congratulations!

Thanks for watching!

Congrats to Miss Involvo'd on passing her test and her first overtake in a Volvo ;-) Hope you had a great Easter. You need Sid to pop round and clean your driveway 🙂

[@Involvod]

Thanks! Yes definitely 😁

[@cheharrison7107]

Mate! What a place, long way from the garage in the dodgy area, trams and pissy mattress's. So happy for you buddy, gonna be such a boost for the channel. I feel the bells are gonna be a feature of the new vids 😅 well done Mrs V too. 🤘

[@Involvod]

Haha most definitely! Bit of a contrast 😅 Thanks

[@BEGGARWOOD1]

Beautiful Bavaria . A church in every village !

[@swtexan6502]

Congrats on the new digs! The Mrs. and myself are getting a bit disenchanted with the States right now and are looking abroad (Europe). It just looks so awesome over there.

[@Involvod]

It's definitely not without it's issues here, I find it quite a culture shock being from the UK, but it is a good standard of living and of course the health insurance is really great compared to the USA and even UK

[@englishgrandad3298]

Wow! how cool seeing BT drive 😃

[@Involvod]

Yes it was!

Very nice place, having a garage onsite and that workshop! Well done Mrs Involvo’d too! Looking forward to more stuff from you but we’ll wait as it will get busier for tou two in a just a few months time!

[@Involvod]

Thanks man, yeah I do wonder how it will be to juggle a new born and a KZbin channel and everything else but you're managing so it gives me confidence 😃

[@GentilsGarage]

@@Involvod to be fair, the fact it was winter meant hardly work on cars and that suited the new life. Now, I try to break a big job into smaller jobs and plan different. Oh, and my wife is very understanding too, but I make up to her.

[@bluej511]

Congrats on the baby, lifes about to get even more amazing. Ill take that Honda repsol off your hands lol, without the massive license plate ty very much. Glad you guys are getting all sorted.

[@Involvod]

Thanks Marcin! We appreciate the support!

[@palerider7708]

Good to see you back with your awesome new place. Apart from the workshop and garage/s in which to lavish luv on Volvos, the location looks picturesque as well. I’m jealous! Not sure about that bell every 15 tho… Also congrats to Miss Involvo’d for getting her licence. Maybe a 1st Generation S/V40 of her own to come soon perhaps? Cheers from Oz.

[@Involvod]

Thanks! Yes the bell will probably get old real fast 😅 We are currently "debating" over a P2 or P3 V70, I of course want the earlier generation.. A P80 or another Redblock would be even better but now it's a question of safety features etc and fuel economy as we're pretty rural now

[@palerider7708]

@@Involvod Nice. Go the XC70 to truly embrace the rural lifestyle 😉

[@zloychechen5150]

@@Involvod a P80 is a proper pain in the ass. P2s are getting on. I'd go for a p3 in a simple trim, and not a diesel or t5.

Nice update. Have been waiting for some time how are you doing. So great to hear all is good with all of you. 👍 Happy Easter

[@Involvod]

Thanks! 👍

[@Involvod]

Thanks 🙂

[@davidlovatt2335]

Happy Easter to you both. So pleased that you are back filming. Fully understand you have had a lot to do. This video had everything- the volvo' s, your volvo mechanical knowledge, Miss Involvo'd driving the 740 for the first time, the lovely Bavarian scenery and you have got a great set up with the new house. I am very much looking forward to more content.

[@Involvod]

Thanks for watching! There are even more giggles in the next video 😃

[@Augenatic]

congrats on the place, looks great man! and bavaria looks great, very hilly it seems

[@Involvod]

Thanks! It is, the 740 isn't happy about the hills, she's great for going into town though. The 240 is much more fun to drive around here

[@zerofull6936]

I envy you having church bells. hope you are happy and content in your new home.

Congratulations , on living in the new house, now you have a bigger hose/ workshop electricity where in the old place you did not have, it is more comfortable like a place to put extra parts , more room .

You're not the only one to suggest that! I spend too much money on Volvo parts to have any other hobby 😄

[@rubenrutegard2312]

Nice to see you get an actual workshop now!!! Im looking to buy some Volvo original multi-x rims but i can't seem to find them anywhere (and i know you've made a video about it but i cant find that either). Do you remember where you bought your's?

[@Involvod]

Thanks! The ones I've got are Scorpius, I bought a Volvo that had them on and swapped them. There is a set for sale now on eBay Kleinanzeigen, expensive though of course 😅 www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/volvo-240-14-orig-scorpius-mit-vredestein-ganzjahresreifen/2403857737-223-4321?

[@rubenrutegard2312]

@@Involvod Didn't know they where called scorpius, they are almost impossible to find here in Sweden. Thanks you're a lifesaver! I was expecting them to cost 1000+ euros when you said expensive, this is actually pretty reasonable, or it could just be the fact that there is a huge shortage of old volvo 240/740 parts in Sweden right now.

[@Bassalicious]

I love how Miss Involvo'd is basically quality control now. No more putting off jobs because "It's not too bad yet" :D Else just wanted to build some oil pressure before starting and then she methodically fired one more cylinder every few seconds lol Btw what was that rattling noise when you drove her onto the driveway? Sounded like some loose sheet metal.

[@Involvod]

Haha, I definitely need to keep the Volvos in even better shape now. The rattle was the exhaust heat shield, took it for a spin and she stopped doing it, hasn't done it since, typical redblock Volvo fixing itself as they sometimes like to do 😄

[@salvadorpalma8173]

I laughed out loud when you said "finally" looking at the power outlet. Not only I've been following you for some time so I get the inside "joke" but I consider myself a "parking lot apprentice amateur mechanic" so I also know the pain!! You don't understand the meaning of a power outlet until you clay, polish and buff an entire estate by hand.

[@Involvod]

Haha, so true! 😄

[@Mads_Villebro]

Great to see all of you again. I would like to know how the fuel economy is on your Volvos. I have a 79 244 2.1 automatic and it’s really thirsty, but I don’t know what to expect. From factory it should do around 10,4 km/l but I’m doing closer to 7 km/l 😮

[@Involvod]

Oh yeah that is quite a lot! Especially if that's average mixed driving not just around town. This 2.3 auto 740 was using 10l per 100km highway last time I checked, but there's a few reasons why I think it's higher at the moment, she has done better in the past (8.5 - 9 highway) The 2.3 manual 240 I have does 8L per 100km highway and not a huge amount more when mixed driving. I've heard from a couple of friends that when they took their 240s to Sweden they got around 7l per 100km!

[@Mads_Villebro]

@@Involvod well I guess it's what you can expect from a giant driving square! 😆 I will just have to go easy on the throttle!

🤣 Still haven't seen anyone dressed like that yet 😄

[@Bassalicious]

I'm so happy it all worked out this well for you guys. Plenty of space for activities, beautiful country roads to go for drives on, the Misses asking for more old Volvos.. You're living the life now, Sledge :) I have no idea why the churches here feel obliged to ring their bells at any given opportunity, even just to tell everyone that 15 minutes have passed. Where I live they count out full hours from 8AM to 3AM and give a single bell at half past. At least I'm spared the quarter hour count but it's still annoying and pointless as hell. I don't get it

[@Involvod]

Yeah man!! Haha it's definitely excessive, at the moment I'm enjoying it as it's a reminder I'm out in a nice village but I think the novelty will wear off, especially with the late night / early morning rings 💀💀💀
