		The Volvo design team invented both the 'safety cage' and 'crumple zone' concept, where passengers are protected in a strong, encircling frame and the energy of a crash is absorbed by destruction of the hood or trunk of the car.
		Volvo also was the first company to produce cars with padded dashboards starting in late 1956 with their Amazon model.
		In the early 1970s, Volvo acquired the passenger car division of the Dutch company DAF, and marketed their small cars as Volvos before releasing the Dutch-built Volvo 340, which went on to be one of the biggest-selling cars in the UK market in the 1980s.

	Volvo Adventures - Volvo Amazon Cabriolet
		Many Volvo enthusiasts have tried to build their own version of the beautiful Coune Cabriolet, however only Belgian Volvo dealer Guy Vermant achieved the desired result with his accurate Amazon Cabriolet Replica, which was built with many parts recovered from an original Coune Cabriolet lost in a fire.
		The Amazons were an ideal basis for a cabriolet conversion, it was a sporty car with two carburettors and was solidly built.
		Volvo supplied Coune with 4 new 122S vehicles and although they were aware of Coune’s plans to build the cabriolets, they didn’t object or interfere with the projects at all.

		Certainly the Amazon poses little threat to the twin-cam Fords but its owner, Leonard Bakkenes, does not race for the glory of an outright win and is content merely to have a great time on race day.
		The standard Volvo exhaust manifold remains, although this is one area that Leonard is planning to change in the future.
		Leonard had been aware of one particular Amazon for several years but he was not able to purchase the car until August 1996— the target was to complete the Volvo in time for the running of the 1996 Dunlop Targa NZ, which was to be the Amazon’s first competitive outing.

	Volvo Classics - Volvo PV544 - Volvo Duett
		While Volvo enjoyed a reputation for building fine automobiles from the beginning in 1927, most of this marquee's fans acknowledge that the defining moment determining Volvo's reputation for building solid durable cars that were a delight to drive commenced with the PV444's introduction.
		Noteworthy in Volvo history is that the PV was the company's first unitary body design.
		The car, which had endeared itself to a majority of its owners, prompted Volvo to run self-deprecating advertisements (in late 1965 and early 1966) imploring these people to not be so angry with the company.

		Unfortunately Volvo had to drop the name 'Amazon' as it was already a registered trademark given to Kreidler, a German motor-cycle factory.

		De Amazon was qua vormgeving zijn tijd ver vooruit en mag zonder twijfel de Volvo met het meest eigen karakter genoemd worden.

	Volvo 120 122S Amazon Buying Guide
		Despite their renowned solidity, Amazons still rust and rust very well if left to their own devices, though Volvos shrewd use of heavy duty steel at least means that caught early, rot is often very localised.
		Some panels on the Amazon were galvanised, such as the sills on the 4 door models, the 2 door examples only having the forward section of sill so treated, the remaining section ahead of the rear wheel being part of the rear wing pressing and not so well protected.
		Volvo 120s feature regularly in historic rally events even today, so this is a sign that once you have a good one, they still represent a superbly engineered route into classic car ownership, offering a standard of build that puts many contemporary classics well and truly in the shade.

	The Raw Story \| Volvo's sturdy 120 series "Amazon" celebrates 50 years By Heiko Haupt

		The new Volvo Amazon adopted the unitary construction methods fashionable at the time and was premiered at the London Motor Show in 1956.
		Volvo Amazons were notable for their use of Swedish steel but not because of the thickness of the panels made from it.

	Classic Volvo 121 Amazon Estate is Restored to Take Its Place in Police Car History
		The Volvo Amazon police car he is restoring, 'FOR 298D', was in service long before Steve began his career and it holds an important place in the history of police vehicles in the UK, which is why Steve reckoned the old girl deserved to be saved.
		Of three makes of car tested (Humber Super Snipe estate, Citroën DS estate and the Volvo 121 Amazon) the Volvo proved to be the one that met all the new requirements the best.
		It had five Amazons in total and without doubt they helped lay the foundation stones to a relationship that has now lasted for 40 years, which I think is probably unique.

	Volvo Adventures, New Zealand - Project Volvo Amazon
		This lady used the Amazon as daily transport but found it harder to handle when she got older, especially parking.
		For a number of years, I had been looking for a late model 2-door Amazon model, preferably a 1970 with dual brake system, and because they are really scarce in NZ (may be 10 roadworthy Amazons in total) one has to act quickly when one is up for sale.
		The felt crank seals were replaced by modern silicone seals used on later model Volvo engines, the housings had to be machined to fit the new seals, but that prevents oil leaks in the future.
