This is a Volvo 850R getting its first wash in 5 years after being left in the woods abandoned. My good friend Pete at The Fix Autoworks in Doylestown PA wants to restore this classic Volvo Sports Sedan. The white paint is extremely oxidized and dirt has settled into every nook and crevice. After a thorough detail on location, we present the Volvo to Pete to work his wrench magic to get it back on the road. Enjoy the detail on this episode of Drive + Protect - L

    Our team at the Fix is super stoked stoked that you brought this Swede back to life!! Thanks Larry! This car will be receiving a full engine refresh, new alcantara/leather seat skins and be added to our collection of great Volvos.
  • @Collemeister
    So much fun seeing 850R getting love. I wish you saw more white R in Sweden. That’s rare! Thank you Larry!
  • @jermtang
    I've been applying your detailing techniques to my own 850R for years, it makes me so happy to see one of them finally get your treatment on this channel!
  • Putting my 911 away today after a last ride. The way I clean it up after finding you is much different than when I bought it decades ago. Thanks Larry.
  • This is incredible. When I watched this video a week ago I thought I’d never be able to find an 850R again for a decent price. I was bummed. But then a polar white sedan like this one popped up near me on Wednesday and I bought yesterday for only $1600! Edit: Canada, not US, automatic, and today I gave it a similar compound/polish treatment and boy does it shine for 384k km paint.
  • One word: WOW! What a difference. This really makes me happy, the detail and job you do on the car is amazing! Thank you!!! Cant wait to see more Volvo's coming on your channel ;-). The red car at 2:54 is a Volvo 740 Turbo by the way, super good video as always Larry!
  • @joshpointoh
    Those 850R's are one of the most beautiful car designs ever.
  • So cool seeing this Volvo come back to life! Such a great job as always! Keep up the amazing work Larry!
  • @ericeger5264
    I am really shocked every time I see these cars running with just a few tweaks after years of sitting and suffering from the passage of time, not only are they extremely resistant to the weather, the guys really know what they are doing and they make them come back to life like magic, incredible
  • @mopsnuf
    I finally started watching your videos today, and as a P2 V70R owner and all-round Volvo enthousiast I can only say this one made me very happy. I'll be watching a lot more! It'd be awesome to do some detailing on the side, complementing a data science job.
  • My cousin had a Volvo and I was never jealous of a car or wanted one like this after I sat in it. The best line of sight and the most comfortable front driver seat I've ever experienced and I've owned a lot of cars, but nothing came close to this.... Love these videos!!! Happy Thanksgiving Larry and crew, you're show is amazing 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
  • Nice to see a Volvo 740 in the beginning of the video dressed in a 850R front bumper 🥰
  • My mom had one of these when I was a kid, in white as well so this really brings me back. People are rude about these boxy volvos but I really like them.
  • @ianjones1118
    These " back to life" videos are the most satisfying. Thanks Larry.
  • @chkoha6462
    "Small businesses like mine" Larry,you are the undisputed YT King of detailing!
  • @TomStepas
    I gotta say I really enjoy all the late 80s-90s restorations. It’s such a nice feeling to see those cars come back to life. It almost takes us all back in time I’m sure many here feel the same way! Keep it up Larry 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
  • Christmas came early. I have a black 850R.. I cried when I saw this. White 850Rs are more rare than black and red ones. 240hp wasn't nothing to sneeze at in 96 and 97.
  • Myself and my wife have an 850r in our collection ( olive green it's our pride and joy the very first car we bought together the first time she hit boost etc ) and can honestly say when I saw this video with Larry pop up, I clicked so fast knowing it's going to be done right by a guy who clearly loves his cars ( and a Volvo I believe ! ) It turned out great the white reminds me of the old unmarked T5's the UK's finest liked to rock up in, as always top work Larry great to see the old girl fire up and then clear them lungs on the open road !
  • @airchie2
    That little clip at the end of the turbo gauge shooting up when you floor it made me miss my old 850 T5 estate (or wagon for those in the US). The noise the 5cyl turbo used to make was awesome, particularly once remapped to almost 300bhp on an otherwise stock car! :D
  • you cannot kill a volvo even if you tried. absolute dream car in wagon form
