Went to a flea market Saturday and couldn’t share my treasures because my phone died! Anyway I got this 1985 coffee table book of exotic cars. Pretty sweet for a dollar.
And went through some die cast cars. Found this French made Majorette Volvo 760 which I gave to my older brother cuz he’s a big Volvo.
The 928 is a 1978 made Hotwheels.
I also grabbed this 1990 Rally MR-2, and 1980 Chevy stock car. Looks like a Monza to me. The Chevy is a Matchbox.
Non of the cars are in good nick as you can see, but I don’t really care I like em.

I had a few variants of that Volvo in my childhood fleet. Those headlight lenses do it for me, and I like the boxy angularity of the 700 series cars.
I now have one similar to the one you found, in an uncommon transporter set (from 1988) :

That’s a pretty cool set. Do you know what the hook on the back is for?

Of the Volvo? It’s just a tow hook - with an extra plastic piece above it to keep the towed item attached. Majorette had a number o f towable items - trailers, boats, campers, etc.
