Video Description

Hagerty’s Editor-at-Large Sam Smith explores what makes the Volvo 200 Series a beloved icon. Although not a collector car by any means, the 200 Series is vintage Volvo -- it’s safe, durable, usable, and quirky enough to get under your skin. Sam will detail what you need to know about buying, owning, and maintaining this lovable classic.
