Misha it's just the real legend!
Was my first time at the ring, and the first lap ever made was in the passenger seat of my own car! So far soo good 🥰
Thank you again @misha ❤

P.s: the alignment problem it's a common thing on this chassi, the steering rack on fast corners gain life and try to correct your trajectory. I'm already used to 🤣 a new one cost a lot unfortunately.
And yes, in the video we don't know exactly the power because the maf sensor died on the roadtrip to nurburgring 😅

[Djfragas]

I like how Misha's face changed and he focused on the Porsche chase. Like a hawk eyeing it's prey lol

[simen]

9:00 Thats the most german way of pressing the emergency blinkers iv ever seen :D

[edwiener]

300k on the clock and still putting up a challenge to a porsche... madness.

The Volvo p2 platform can be made into a track god. Many people underestimate these cars. I love these Volvos, possibly the best modern Volvos ever produced. Everything about them is close to perfect, in my opinion. The quality of the interior and the quality of every single plastic bit is superb. Thank you Misha for posting this video, made my day.

OMG from Portugal! So happy to see some one from my country!! I want to go there one day too.

Hugs from Portugal

Fantastic video! That's actually a facelift T5, which has the legendary 2.4 B5244T5 engine. Arguably one of the best engines Volvo made, forged from the factory but being a 2.4, means it has thicker cylinder walls and can take over 400hp even on the stock turbo, as it runs the same large K24 turbo as the R model. There's even guys in Sweden running the same engine in drift cars with over 800hp on stock internals!

I myself have an S60 T5 with the same engine and transmission, putting out 340hp. It's very quick and surprises people on the highway!

[TJWCars]

I am a BIG Volvo guy and watching a Volvo surprise people really makes me happy.

Misha, I know you had a few Volvos. Maybe time for another 😉😉

[VorpalBunnysRevenge]

When the red Porsche passed him, Misha turned into a hound that sees a rabbit -- gotta catch. Gotta catch! No more complaints about the V70, lol.

[josemendes]

O quanto eu adoro o som dos 5 cilindros, parabéns Bernardo pelo teu volvo, saudações de Portugal 💪

[neilstothard]

These cars were a common sight on UK roads at the along with their 850 predecessors were used by police forces up and down the country, they got the nickname the Terminator over here dure to their T5 badges.

[ianmoone]

300k on the clock many wouldn't trust their cars to make a portugal-germany-portugal + track abuse + IDC how but a GT4 was passed.. That's a w trip in my books

[thestjani]

Great to watch!, I myself have a V50 T5 AWD with the B5254T3 and currently tuned and pushing around 270Bhp :), is a fun family wagon with plenty of power!

[zaponite]

I’ll be coming back to the ring in July with my V70 T5. Running less power than this example but on Coilovers with good alignment, stripped interior and a big oil cooler. Fancy a lap?

[thefameg]

400hp 300k miles and still performs like a new supercar

[PAZAK]

I'm portuguese too! Awesome that he is dressing his jacket that says "Leiria" which is known by the car city here in Portugal.

[connormorse]

These things are undiscovered track weapons. Strip them out, a few poly bushings, and some good tyres… you will be amazed.

[koldonibane]

Would love to see Misha drive FCP Euro's BTCC tribute 850 around the Nurburgring!

[lbnewell]

Would love to see you lap the manual V70R autotopnl had on that had 566hp because that thing was ludicrous

[rereg]

One of the best sounding engines there is. Especially considering the cars they came in.
