We were a little puzzled by the sight of these left-hand-drive Amazons driving on the left side of the road in a home-market Volvo Amazon ad, but a bit of research indicates that Sweden was a left-hand-drive country until 1967. In any case, they do a good job here of selling the plodding Amazon as a classy machine packing berserker-style power under the hood. We totally dig the wailin' hepcats on the jazz soundtrack, and the breathy woman's carefully enunciated words just send us, baby! – Murilee Martin
