Volvo Amazon 

A compoundly rounded, stylish somewhat Seussian Swedemobile. The "style" name for the Volvo 122 series, a mid-century car built when Sweden's roads were mostly unpaved. Tough, yet economical. Many daily drivers all over the globe. Other Volvo-lingo crossover, the Amazon can be a "Redblock", but is too round to be a "Brick." It was the first car to come with 3-point seatbelts. Many surviving examples on the US west Coast, especially Portland and Seattle. Driven in the US by folksingers, professors, artistic odd birds and off-gridders who also brew beer and ferment things. Driven in Europe and the rest of the world like a tough long-lasting car of economical size and disposition.
Check out that sick Volvo Amazon! It must be at least sixty years old.

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
