"Fun car to drive, featuring a smooth and powerful engine, solid gear shifting, and reliable brakes. Under the hood, it's exceptionally clean and well-maintained. However, there are two points to note: the speedometer and radio not working."

Description

This car is being sold as part of the estate of its late owner, who was a devoted enthusiast of the Volvo PV, having owned and renovated at least 20 such models during his lifetime. Purchased in 2014 in solid condition, it underwent a comprehensive renovation, including a repaint, which was completed in 2016. This also included its final inspection. While the family was not precise about the details and timeline of the work done, the car was cherished as a summer car and saw plenty of use. Observing the car reveals well-executed bodywork, a neat engine bay, and an exceptionally nice interior. The upgraded engine makes it a significantly more powerful and enjoyable car to drive.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    After driving the car for 30 minutes, I can confidently say there are no mechanical issues that need addressing. It drives beautifully, free from any rumbling sounds, with a sharp gearbox and good brakes, and it easily keeps pace with modern cars. There is a slight dampness near the valve gaskets that just requires a minor adjustment, and the speedometer cable needs replacing. Other than that, the car is equipped with nice wheels and tires

  • Interior condition:

    The interior is in excellent condition, appearing as though the seats have been reupholstered. It features newer door cards, a refreshed dashboard top, and a headliner along with rubber floor mats. The only minor issue is a small hole in the vinyl on the back of the driver's seat, as indicated in the pictures. The dashboard and gauges are well-maintained, and an additional speaker has been installed in the parcel shelf.

  • Exterior condition:

    Bodywork is straight, rust-free, and undamaged, with a matching underbody. The paintwork is shiny and clean, also without any damage. The boot space is very tidy, showing no signs of strange welding or rust. The chrome detailing throughout is bright and well-maintained. It's fitted with American bumpers, although there is a slight dent and some surface rust on the rear right corner, which is hard to notice unless specifically looked for, as detailed in the pictures.

  • General condition:

    This car is ideal for a Volvo enthusiast, having been properly renovated and owned by someone with extensive knowledge of these cars. After driving it, one can't help but wish Volvo had equipped all later PV sport models with a B20 engine. It's in turnkey condition, ready to be driven straight to the next car show.

  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
