HEEL TREAD Volvo 850 BTCC Socks

Remember that time Volvo went crazy and ran with a property?

We also remember!

In the early ' 90s, someone at Volvo thought it would be smart if vans stopped being safe and boring and became sporty and cool. Fast forward to 1994 and the 850 van begins competing in the British Touring Car Championship. The first station wagon to compete in Touring Car Championships was never very successful on the tracks. And you would probably be surprised if you remembered that it only lasted one season and was replaced the following year by the sedan due to changes in the regulations - it is never easy for those who dare to be different...

However, its uniqueness and charisma have made it the most iconic BTCC car ever - just seeing one (often on two wheels) on the track is enough to set us back. The fact that he is still regularly mentioned today and making guest appearances at recent Goodwood's is proof enough of the impact his one season in the BTCC has had on motorsport fans.

That and the fact that they ran with giant stuffed dogs on their backs to annoy the competition.

That's what legends are made of.

Remember that time, Volvo went crazy and raced an estate?

We do too! 

In the early 90's someone at Volvo thought it would be smart if they were no longer safe and boring and were now sporty and cool. Fast forward to 1994 and the 850 estate starts competing in the British Touring Car Championship. The first estate to compete in touring car championships was never overly successful on the track. And you'd probably be surprised to remember that it only lasted a season and was replaced the next year by the sedan due to regulation changes - it's never easy for those who dare to be different... 

Nevertheless, its uniqueness and charisma made it arguably the most iconic BTCC car ever - just seeing one (often on two wheels) on the track takes us back. The fact that even today it's still regularly mentioned and makes special appearances in recent Goodwood's is proof enough of the impact it's one season in the BTCC had in motorsport fans.

That and the fact they raced it with giant stuffed dogs on the back to annoy the competition.

That's the stuff legends are made of.
