noticed a possible problem for the Volvo construction vehicles

some are listed with make Volvo BM while other like this just as Volvo

It depends on the year... they were Volvo BM from 1973(?) until the late 90's? Then just Volvo afterward. I don't know the years. I'm sure you'll do some research on it :smile:

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volvo_BM it changed to Volvo Construction Equipment in 1995 (so just Volvo as make)
But as Owlman said, before that they were Volvo BM.
