The text portion of this ad states:
IT CAN ACTUALLY MAKE 55 M.P.H. INTERESTING
If you think that’s impossible, you’ve never driven the Volvo Turbo.
A car whose handling equipment can turn a curve in the road or a trip to the supermarket into a driving adventure.
Its turbo-charged 4-cylinder engine can dust a V-8 off the line. Automotive writers have described it as “A blast.”Spectactualr.” “Like cutting in an afterburner.”
Maybe you think speed limits , emission controls and government milage requirements have made driving humdrum. But that’s only because you don’t own an interesting car.
THE TURBO
