I’m impressed but skeptical. A lot depends on the execution. If Lola delivers on their promise of authenticity while maintaining reliability, this could be genuinely special. If they cut corners, it’s just going to be disappointing.
The lines on this car are absolutely timeless. I keep coming back to how Mercedes managed to create something this beautiful without resorting to extreme styling. It’s elegant simplicity at its finest.
I’m with those questioning the 410 choice. It’s impressive but seems like the truck would have been perfect with a more period-correct engine option. Still, can’t deny the craftsmanship in the swap.
This is actually quite genius from a strategic perspective. Volvo secures dealer loyalty while gaining market insights from selling different vehicle segments. It’s a win-win if executed properly.
