"A rare, meticulously maintained example – nearly in showroom condition."

Description

Delivered new with minimal equipment – a so-called "empty shell," as Volvo salespeople used to call them. The lady who ordered the car, for instance, opted not to include a radio. It is equipped with the B230A engine featuring a carburetor and manual choke. This car was primarily used during the summer months, spending the rest of the time in a heated garage.

Meticulously rustproofed from the start and extensively documented, it comes with complete service and inspection records, receipts, and more, dating back to the beginning. It has always been serviced on time at the same workshop – Bilia in Sisjön. A set of fresh winter tires, used but only sparingly, is included.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition

    The engine runs smoothly, and the gearbox operates quietly and precisely, offering an almost like-new feel. The same applies to all other mechanical and electrical components. The timing belt was last replaced in 2015, and the car has driven just over 10,000 kilometers since then.

  • Interior condition

    Exceptionally well-preserved with barely any signs of wear anywhere. The seats, upholstery, and other interior components are in nearly pristine condition, exuding an almost new-car feel. The only note is that the headliner has slightly come loose at the rear.

  • Exterior condition

    There’s little else to say—this car is in near-perfect condition in every aspect. The bumpers are completely undamaged, and the hubcaps are shiny and in great shape, with only minor signs of age. The paintwork is consistently excellent, even in seams, corners, and crevices.

    There is, however, some minor rust starting to develop at the bottom of a rear wheel arch and a small rust bubble in the engine bay. The engine bay could use a thorough cleaning to match the rest of the car’s condition. Most likely, lingering mist and residue from rustproofing have caused dust and dirt to stick.

  • General condition

    Careful use, regular servicing, and proper storage have preserved this car in excellent condition.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • 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.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
  • For items that have not been collected within 14 days storage costs may be charged.
