"A classic PV of the last model, a unique opportunity to buy an untouched original car that can be used."

Description

The first owner (who was a relative of the current owner) bought the car in November 1965. He took good care of it, the only thing that happened was that the driver's seat back got some holes from him always using hinge pants. At his passing away the wife took over the car but since she did not have a driver's license the car was not used much, however, she got help with driving to inspection and service.
When the wife passed away in 1992, the current owner inherited the car. Because it was a bit pale and had some flaws, the car's skirt was repainted under the mold. It has since been used sparingly during the summer and has always been stored in a garage. Now the owner feels that her interest in the car has cooled down and it is rarely used, she wants an enthusiast to take care of it.

Facts about the model

Volvo PV 544, svensk personbil tillverkad av Volvo 1958-1965.

Det viktigaste skälet till att vidareutveckla PV 444-konceptet, var av ekonomisk art - karossverktygen var sedan länge betalda och de ändringar man fick göra för den "nya" modellen kostade endast omkring 3 miljoner kronor, mot beräknade 35 miljoner kronor för en helt ny kaross. Ett trumfkort i USA var dessutom andrahandsvärdet. Redan efter några år kunde Volvohandlarna visa på att en PV 444 under första året endast tappat cirka 8 % i värde, medan en amerikansk bil tappade upp till 40 % redan under första året.

Vindrutan hade nu förstorats med 22 % samt gjorts högre och dess svepyta hade ökats med 43 % och bakrutan var 19 % större och hade sänkt nederkant. Munstycken till vindrutespolare var standard, men pumpen var extrautrustning. Bilen hade nu blivit besiktigad för fem personer i Sverige, genom att baksätet hade blivit 17 centimeter större i höjd med dynan. Karossformen gjorde dock att förbättringen i axelhöjd inte kunde bli mer än 5 centimeter. Framstolarna hade gjorts tunnare, så att knäutrymmet i baksätet ökade med 6 centimeter. Standard PV:n kostade i Sverige 9 250 kronor, modell Special I kostade 9 520 kronor och Special II 10 375 kronor.
Motor (1961-65): typ B18A, rak fyrcylindrig toppventilsmotor (Sport: B18D)
Slagvolym: 1 780 cm3
Borr x slag: 84,14x80 mm
Effekt: 75 hk vid 4 500 r/min (Favorit, Special), 90 hk vid 5 000 r/min (Sport)
Växellåda:
3-växlad manuell, med osynkroniserad 1:a (Standard: 1958-60)
3-växlad manuell, helsynkroniserad (Favorit: 1960-65)
