"Could the Volvo be any less Tesla-like?" No, but I bet the Tesla won't still be going strong after 30 years like the Volvo is.

The Volvo is better looking than the Tesla too. I don't mind roundness on a small car but big cars need that edge.

That is very true

[@deancary6676]

I hope that you will all be safe. Can't help feeling a little concerned - given I live in the world's most locked down nation (New Zealand). If you have an addiction to Furious Driving, that makes me feel better because I have developed one too, especially this Volvo series. I have to admit I like the old square rigged Volvos. I rather like the music of ABBA - it's very solidly crafted when you listen to it properly with an open mind (much to my partner's delight - she's a life long fan). I like listening to the Swedish language too - it's pretty cool. Take care Daniel and be safe.

[@maxidyne]

Love the camera view! Nice job on the repairs, she's getting there. You live in a beautiful area, stunning view of the houses when you wait at the stoplight. Enjoyed this ride along, nice driving. Stay safe, and thanks for the video!

Its such a nice thing to waft about in, very relaxing (unless you try to hook then it bites back!) I am lucky to be in a nice place for lock down, hope you are staying safe too!

[@OleVanDole]

Lovely to hear the sound of that engine, sound similar to my 1991 Volvo 940 with 450k KMs on the clock. Nice to see your taking the proper precautions, stay safe :)

[@notniceprawn]

Love just watching some driving! I sold my car on the 1st of March and the purchase of the replacement fell through due to the dealer closing for lockdown. This video scratched my itch of just wanting to do something normal, like driving a car. Now I'm looking at used Volvos! Cheers.

[@Sython6]

Little tip, most cars have a little arrow on the fuel gauge showing which side you can pump fuel into.

[@CalamityJames.]

2:06 I used to live in Aylesford, lovely village. Really miss it, only had to move as the landlady came back from Spain and wanted her house back!

[@furiousdriving]

Very inconsiderate!

[@cme2cau]

I bought one of these new in 1988. 2.3 petrol, 5 speed manual. At the time, I had a business covering 3 towns in country South Australia. between business, regular 260 km round trips to Adelaine, and occasional 2800 km round trips to Sydney, I was putting 100,000 kms a year on the car, not all on sealed roads. A couple of observations. Flat to the floor in 5th, a 2.3 l Volvo will do an indicated 180km/h. It will do that for over an hour without lifting (I reached civilisation) . On the low octane unleaded then available, the 2.3 will ping its head off if you go over 90 km/h when it's 45C outside. If you drive really gently, you can get 1000 km out of a 75l tank.

[@nasirmahmood5684]

So refreshing to hear someone buy fuel in litres and not pounds.

[@Candisa]

In Volvo's that don't yet have the arrow on the fuel gauge, the filler is on the side where the gauge is in the cluster. My 740 and 940 had the gauge on the left side in the cluster and the filler on the left side of the car, my V70 had the gauge on the right side of the cluster and the filler on the right side of the car.

[@daves7764]

Morning Matt , what a lovely part of the country you live in, just love being behind the wheel of that old girl even if it is on your camera.

[@saddoncarrs6963]

You're a model citizen - an example to us all. I'd love to get out for a decent drive while the roads are clear - trouble is, when I am eventually allowed back out to play, the highways will once again be plagued with motorhomes, caravans and little ol' ladies in their Nissan Micras. Such is life.

[@iainbruce3376]

Nothing better than the sound of an old volvo.

[@seancooke4127]

Sainsbury is rapidly becoming a sexy destination don't knock it. Try to imagine how much space is wasted in the Tesla making it so swoopy to eek every mile from the battery. Whereas in the Volvo you could get lost. I have seen Kent at dusk overnighting to get the ferry in the morning. In a Volvo also. Safe shopping. Oh yes, Tomcat T shirt on the way Amaranth Purple over Charcoal Heather.

[@iceonthemoon]

A little trick for trying to remember which side the petrol cap is on - the fuel gauge in most cars has a little arrow, and this points to the side with the cap.

[@d2factotum]

True, but not all--my Dacia Sandero doesn't have one, for instance. Guess it would have cost to much to add it, or something. :-)

[@GoldenCroc]

If I am not entirely mistaken, the Side of the gas pump symbol on the dash which has the hose, is supposed to be the side of the car with the filler cap! I.e. if the symbol has the hose on the right side, the filler is on the right side of the car. The arrow is used when the symbol hose is on the other side. I am not 100% this is true, but it has been so for ALL cars I have ever driven, except one, a Renault Traffic. I would love feedback on this comment from other people if you have experrianced the same!

[@RedsGarageUK]

@@GoldenCroc More of a modern (ie last 20 years or so) car thing. My 'modern' (2004) car has this, but none of the other cars I've owned do.

[@televisionandcheese]

@Midnight Toker and? It's still a right pain to bring it round and you make yourself look like a right plonker

[@televisionandcheese]

In there Rover Mini, the fuel cap sticks out the side if the body, so you can easily check which side it is by peeking in the wing mirror :) I think most cars by about 99 started to get the little arrows.

Brilliant series! Looking forward to the next instalment. I'm having the day off from my essential work today, so I've caught up on the Volvo. Now I'm heading to the supermarket and then the petrol station myself. It's been 30 days and 680 kilometres since I filled up my Suzuki and the low fuel light came on travelling home from work last night. Take care and be safe.

[@OvlovC70]

I go over once a month or so, and your driving footage is making me “homesick” because I can’t travel over the pond with the current situation... thanks for the great videos!

[@furiousdriving]

I am very lucky, although the developers want to build all over it. Hope you get to come 'home' again soon

[@adrianrowden8266]

The fuel pump icon on most dashboards will tell you what side the filler cap is on. The same side as the hose on the icon.

[@RichieRouge206]

So much more fun than the Tesla! This made my day, really miss the noise and lovely drive of the 740. Two of mine had the black and blue dash, the last one was tan. So familiar after spending an entire childhood towing a caravan with the G-reg estate. They really are lovely to drove despite their fairly archaic underpinnings. And to my mind an easy to care for useable old car is cheap to run and environmentally friendlier than anything new, especially a Tesla.

[@phillipevans9414]

It was funny hearing you comment on how quiet the roads were, they looked to be what is about normal for here in my Australian town. Cheers!

[@AndyDento21]

Is the auxiliary belt squeaking or some bearing noise when you set off??? 😬 Depending on the year... Make sure it does or doesn’t have a PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) system.... They are usually forgotten about and every 70,000 to 80,000 miles you need to check the pipes are not blocked and are not rock hard!... It’s an emission control system that puts the crank case fumes back into the engine to burn them off.... When they block they cause oil leaks.... On my c70 to find if it’s working correctly if you place a rubber glove over the open oil filler it should not blow the glove up but try to suck it in..... Just something I learned that the 740 was one of the first to use this system

[@furiousdriving]

Its a belt, I think the power steering one that seems to squeak at first when the wheels turned, I need to change them before any big trips!

[@AndyDento21]

furiousdriving Is it the old v belt design?

[@davenaylor8076]

You do know you can tell what side of the car your fuel filler is on by looking at the fuel gauge. It should have a triangle on the left or right side of the gauge, indicating the side the filler is on.

[@DarrenCoull]

Great to see some of the roads I used regularly when I lived there! Worked at Travis Perkins at Aylesford, when it was called Sandell Perkins, and the building had an extra storey on top for the computers!

I remember my 740, a GLE Estate, long gone now sadly, I remember once on the M6 north of Carlisle putting my foot down and it rocketed up to 95mph before I lost my nerve, in those days I was driving from North Wales to Prestwick, Ayrshire to do contract design work. I recall the car had a 2.3 litre petrol engine rated at 131hp. Fast in a straight line but not so good on wiggly roads, and the headlamps were pretty hopeless until I got some bulbs which were 100 watts on main beam and 80 watts on dipped.

Hi.I enjoyed your ride a lot. My Volvo is in the garage for over a month because of the lockdown. Here in Athens I only use my Kymco to go shopping because there are very strict measures for the lockdown and there is no point taking my car. I hope that in May we will be allowed to drive outside of the city because Greece did well with all this COVID19 thing. I miss my Volvo. Anyway the most important thing is to stay safe. So... Stay safe and bring us more Volvo videos!

[@steamhammer2k]

Blown bulb on a volvo 740... now that brings back memories of my 740, was always blowing bulbs, never a headlight bulb in the 10 years I owned mine the rest were always going... Make sure the running front light bulbs are in correct easy to get in wrong that would give you the bulb out dash light you have. BTW the fuel tank is VERY small on the 740 the range on mine was less that 300 miles aways re fueling mine.

I know what you mean - there's that eerie feeling you're doing something you shouldn't be doing, even if you know you can. Most of these safe-distancing rules are just common sense and shouldn't need to be taken to extremes. Jacob Rees-Mogg mentioned when he was at morning prayers in Parliament, Mr Speaker walked past him less than a foot away, so you can't be too extreme about it!

[@secularnevrosis]

You should check why it takes so much fuel. My old 1987 740, with carb, used about 0.8 l/10km even less when crusing on the highway. And don't be to worried about lean in the car. As long as you have grip with your wheels why bother abour body roll. The 740 and 940 models lose grip in a gentle and slow manner. Strarting to drift out in the rear in the winter?..think about doing something...drink some coffe...relax and then counter the slip. They are super consistent unlike my old BMW 323i.

[@furiousdriving]

Ive had a Rover P6 since 1992, Im fine with body roll! Im not sure on the conversion but these normally get about 25mpg, which is quite low by todays standards and seems about right. Its about half the economy of my Mercedes

[@glynjones2540]

[@nicolamiriano9150]

Funny video, i love that 740, and i always park far from other cars as you (and every car guy)... Just a little tip, wait a few seconds before starting the engine (after having turned the key on) so the fuel pump reaches the correct pressure 😉

[@Colin623]

Good to see the Volvo running so well, my Volvo V70 battery is 15 years old, and only now showing signs of giving up, after 9 days of standing idle it didn't sound too enthusiastic to spin the engine . My 1989 740 GLE was a dream to drive, it was an automatic, but on the motorway was incredible relaxing to drive, would cruise at 80-100 mph with no problem. Good to see you wearing gloves plus sanitizer at the garage, but why didn't you wear gloves in the supermarket ? or did you ? couldn't see from the video, but I always spray my woolen gloves with watered down Zoflora disinfectant before I leave home, because don't forget that all those items you bought from the supermarket have been handled by many people, any of which could have the virus on their hands ! I even put the shopping away with my gloves on, which incidentally are damp with disinfectant ! so kill any virus instantly, just a thought in this scary situation.

[@another3997]

I went shopping today, and a deliveroo rider went through two sets of red lights, also making sure to just pull across in to my lane, right in front of me, without signalling. I can only assume he thought my car would magically bounce off the shield of invincibility that surrounds his bike. 🙄 Fortunately one of us was paying attention. I'm a cyclist (not the lycra clad, whippet like, speed demon variety) and it really pisses me when I see morons riding like that. Where's Darwinism when you want it? 👿

[@Bratfalken]

The lightbulb out relay is a picky one, you need exact balance on left versus right side, no different wattage, it is the largest relay behind the ashtray in the center column. It works that warninglight, the turn indicators and the seatbelt warning ligth too. Some goes bad if they are left lopsided for too long and costed a small fortune when Volvo sold them, finding a good one at a scrapyard is often easier. But there are several variants of them so get the one with the exact right number. The fueltank is most often a 60 liter variant, only early 760 had an extra canister above the standard keeping an extra 15 liters.

[@furiousdriving]

Thats good to know, I dont think any power is getting to the running lights so it probably is that, although the other things work properly

[@Bratfalken]

@@furiousdriving I don't know how it works in the UK, but in Sweden those 21W/5W where used as followed: the 21W (along with the rear position lights) got power when the lightswitch was on 0 position (and the ignition was on), it was legal as daytime running lights on Volvos and Saabs, (if your car didn't have these, you had to use low beam while it was bright outside) once you switch to parking lights or low beam, those bulbs went to the 5w mode! Many cars ran around with one in 21w mode and the other in 5w, as the owner did not see the right way to put it in. Also, the lightswitch burnt out on many early models of 240 and 740, this problem was later solved with relays instead of running the full power through the switch to these and the headlights. We had one 740 that was slightly "pimped out" by it's previous owner, the rear fogligths had switched sockets to 21/5w twin treaded ones so you had 3 glowing rear lights on each side and then on the very edge out against the curb there was yet another socket added in what I guess was the rear side position lights for the US market! So all in all eight rear 5w lightbulbs! And still a working 21w foglight on each inner position. ;-)

[@jezzaqc]

Watching you driving into the petrol station and then realising you didn’t know which side your fuel cap is, and so you opened the door and looked (which is perfectly natural), reminded me of an urban legend which I’m not sure is true and you are probably better placed to check. What I’ve been told is that your dashboard actually gives you the answer in a very subtle way. The fuel gauge on the dash has a picture of a petrol pump. If there is a triangle or the pipe/nozzle is on the right hand side, then your fuel cap will on the driver’s side. If it’s on the left, then your fuel cap should be on the passenger side (assuming your car is RHD of course). I don’t know if it’s true, and if I’m wrong please dispel the myth! If it’s true, it should save you having to get out at look especially when the filling station is busy or it’s cold and wet!

[@furiousdriving]

Most cars do have that symbol trick, this one is an actual trick as the nozzle on the gauge is on the wrong side!

That depends on what type of person you are, e.g. introverts tend to prefer being home and away from gatherings of people etc. So this lock-down will pose few if any issues for them.

The simple vicarious pleasure of watching someone else go out ...

[@karlos543]

I think I may have problems. I've just watched a chap go to the supermarket and then the petrol station. My excuse is that I've been on my narrowboat way too long. Keep safe all...this time next year we will look back and all will be normal. ..probably. ..

[@furiousdriving]

but thanks for watching! Maybe I should go watch some narrow boat videos

[@paulgriffiths6344]

A car guy like and you didn't know that the arrow next to the fuel gauge points to wihich side on the car is the filler.

[@furiousdriving]

I dont notice it on the gauge

[@angrymuffinsb]

I also put fuel in yesterday (21/04/20) in Plymouth. It was £102.2.

[@jackjacko8706]

From memory the fuel gauge should have a pump symbol on either right or left to show which side filler is.

[@LeeTanczos]

the dash gauge should tell you which side the filler is on! have a look closely. And correct road positioning will help with the lean :-)

A nice ride in the old 740,and the feeder roads seem narrow in my estimation.

[@furiousdriving]

Maybe the car is big? Its normal size onto the motorway, the little road in the village is quite narrow though

Basic unleaded 89.9c/litre here (equiv. 46p/litre) in Melbourne (85.9 for E10) - so they're still overcharging you! ;-) Really must go fill the Disco up with some cheap 98 premium!
