Agree with this sentiment entirely !

Damn, this was a fun series. Makes me miss my 5 cylinder VW rabbit. Definitely not a "fast" car, but it was fun on the mountain roads and made good 5 cylinder noises.

I'm not gonna lie. I had a feeling you'd be into cars seeing that you drove stick in your early videos but man. Seeing you take on a whole project like this was unexpected since your main content was the photography stuff but I LIKE WHAT I SEE!

Seeing them also liking all the big automotive creators on insta was a big sign that it was only a matter of time for me

Been following Willems photography and his KZread for years. When I heard he came out with an automotive channel I was super excited. Had no idea the guy had a passion for cars, something that most of my friends and family don’t have. Super cool, and especially to see him working on 2000s Volvos is sick. Ive been daily driving a 2008 Volvo S60 T5 for the last two years(my first car). And I’ve loved it so much. Sadly I’m putting it up for sale in a couple days as I’m getting a newer car. Anyways, love the channel Willem, the S70 turned out fucking sick. Look forward to seeing your vids in the newest S60 in your collection.

Love it man! Thanks for the kind words ❤️

The only downside of your videos is the fact I really start missing my v70s I had in the past and now want to buy one again. The only problem is that I’m broke af and that there’s already an old 240 as my daily which I will definitely keep. Besides that I’m still loving it Willem! ❤

These videos are so inspiring man. I got rid of my v70 this past summer due to some engine trouble that was too expensive to fix. I’ve always wanted to learn how to work on cars but have always second guessed myself. Wishing I would have attempted the work after watching these videos. I miss that car so much haha

this channel is gonna be huge. cannot wait for the next episode!!!!

Bro these have been the most relaxing vibey car videos I've ever watched, this is fantastic!

Dude, this came out so perfect, the vibes at 16:50 are magnificent.

Nice job Willem, looking forward to your next project.

Your videos are special, don't know how to describe it, but I loved watching them. The quality of your videos is nice, you showed us a lot and I really appreciate it. V70 turned out perfect man! Can't wait to see more of your videos:)

This video is so incredibly satisfying haha.

stoked on this project results !! always quality that's the verbeek trademark aha

Loved this series. Big fan of those P1 Volvos, hope to see more of the V70 and the S60!

Getting “What to expect when modifying a Volvo” videos recommended to my feed now lol

Man i love your channel so much and your love of this beautiful Swedish brand! The Swedish manufacture has a large history of building beautiful reliable cars! I love magnificent 5 cilinder engine and the sound! Keep up the good work😊

Amazing work, that volvo is gorgeous

wow this video production is amazing man keep up the work!

When i clicked on this video i really didn't expect this quality of video but you really have some skills in video production. Props to you for saving the V70!

As a fellow Volvo owner that learned a lot by fixing issues when I got the car, I approve of this video. Nice work!

Dude yes, Im here for this project. Reminds me of high school always dreaming of doing a full project like this. Great addition to the photography channel.

Car looks superb great work.

wagon came out great. good job fellas. V70R rims looks amazing

Awesome work Volbro .. that's a sleeper/keeper!

Awesome to see your progress, just started building my newer t6 xc70

Congrats bro! Here for the car content. Cheers 🍾🍾

Awesome stuff mate. great going.

Grats on a running car! I thought about doing a fun build for photo road trips for awhile but haven’t made the leap. Maybe this is what I needed to see to make it happen this summer 😎

I really enjoy your photography. This channel is so foreign to me. What the realization for me is that a car is just an assembly of parts which have to be put together correctly. Just and correctly seem to be the operative aspects. I follow a channel about “think like an engineer” this seems a lot like that. Thinking and doing! Thanks for sharing your adventures.

amazing video. I'm 22 and I own a beat up 2001 V70XC manual as my first car, I just got VIDA running on my win10 machine after 2 years of volvo ownership and I can't believe how relatable this video is. Subscribed!

These episodes have been really enjoyable!

Cool man, i just picked one of these up last week. Nice videos.

This is amazing to see really, I have a 98 civic, and I'm having like a loooot of work with it, but I love it and I wanna let it perfect for driving too like you did with the Volvo, great work;

This man is an automative genius

Awesome job, keep going .

I need a friend like you where I live. Just got a 2007 V70 2.5T (getting delivered next week or the week after) and have so much I need to learn about this car.

Loved this Series ! Definitely gives me some Inspo to go and Work on the Saab . Can’t wait for what’s next 🙏

best car channel

Amazing approach and camera work.

Excellent content. Thank you for sharing!!

I was thinking you gave up on this thing, nice to see you are continuing on your project...

Holy cow, Willem! You know WAY to much about all this now. Congratulations! I can’t tell you how many thresholds you pasted where I would have put that thing on a flatbed straight to the best shop I could find! Love the new channel, too! Can’t wait for whatever’s next! Cheers!

That Volvo came out beautiful Willem! It's so satisfying when you start a motor project and you carry it to the end with the result that's even better than you expect, I know the feeling. I spent last summer restoring a 1974 Ducati and got it ready just in time for a classic motorcycle event here in Italy, turned out better than I've ever wanted Hope the next project will be some photogenic classic car, keep pushing man🔥

Hey man! I’m a car mechanic/enthusiast and I’ve been watching your film photography videos and learning from them as I get into 35mm film! So it was so dope to see that you have a car channel. I just finished watching your little series and man for someone that’s new to all this you did a killer job! You look natural and just mechanically minded in general judging from the clips. From replacing the motor and diagnosing issues, props to you bro keep it up

Absolutely cannot wait for more car content willem, i thought I was the only film and car guy out there haha

A very cool series of videos about this build. Really informative and seeing the things I also went through with my 850 which I swapped from N/A to T5 it was a trip down memory lane for me (although that swap was 2 years ago). I would add front fog lights, a rear roof spoiler and maybe a black dash if that isn't too much of a hassle and you'll have a perfect beautiful white V70. That color is rare, even here in Europe!

Wow! That’s awesome. I would imagine a T5 swap is pretty intense. Not sure how it is with the p1 gen but even something like adding fogs requires factory software to be added

love to see some recaros

Wow ̶W̶i̶l̶l̶e̶m̶ Wheelem, quite a scare there for a second when you couldnt find your keys! If only you had a Long Weekend™ Jet Key Tag, you would've been able to immediately and conveniently find your keys!

I've always had a thing for Volvos. We don't need a car here in Brooklyn, but if we ever decide to get a car again, a Volvo is one of the top choices.

I love your Volvos Will!

I can't believe that you had limited auto-mechanical experience before doing this rebuild. amazing.

stumbled on you and i thought damn this looks like willem the guy who shoots film that i've been watching for years and laughed when i realized it was you. thanks. subbed.

Okay! You did it and did it well! Now you need another project… like a Volvo for your girlfriend…? ABS block issue on P2 is very common. Also the wheel bearings. But they are easy. And yes it’s very hard to not get a smile revving that 5 cylinder. Luckily I get a daily dose! It reminds of the Audi Quattro rally car with Walter Röhrl. Nice to see you are very enthusiastic about Volvos. It’s hard to explain but it’s that sense of quality and comfort inside a very safe car. Congrats!

cool one man!!

tuning this platform is now free and open source, all the information is recently released, im learning to tune my S60R right now

Hey, love the channel and love the work you're doing on the V70! Question: what LA junkyard do you go to to find Volvo parts?

Now its time to SLAM IT

Warning I'm assuming or i might have missed it, check that brake guide pins for grease and movement as if not used could be frozen, best practice grease and or replace all

well done.

You basically built a copy of my car, I also have a white v70 with silver 18-inch Volvo R wheels. Mine is a 2,5t and on coils though :P It works like a charm after 230 000miles!

LIKE THIS CAR. ...!

Usualy ABS needs no reprogramming, the module.. The stucking walve I never experienced and all my cars has more than 300k and over till i sell them.. Good Job, buddy
