The story of how Kasper came to own this near-mint Volvo 242 is pretty spectacular. Back when he was in high school he met his friend's grandmother from Victoria while she was visiting in Southern Ontario. They bonded over the fact that she had this car that he loved and she told him that if she ever sold it she would keep him in mind. Well over a decade later he gets the call. He flew out to Victoria and drove the car back across Canada, putting almost as many kms on it in that one trip as it had accumulated in its lifetime. The simplistic and timeless Scandinavian design hasn't aged. We took it out in St. Thomas, Ontario just as the sun was setting on a hot August night.
