Description
This car is being sold by a collector outside of Umeå, who has owned it for nearly 20 years. It has been off the road since 2006 and kept in the car collection, but has been taken out for occasional summer drives. The car is exceptionally well-preserved and lacks any major issues. We estimate that the odometer has completed one full rotation, indicating a total mileage of approximately 120 000 km. The body and interior are in untouched, well-maintained original condition. This model, produced from 1967 to 1972, is considered one of the more beautiful small car designs of its time, and its timeless design still holds up today.
In 1972, Volvo acquired shares in DAF's passenger car business and began development of the successor, the Volvo 66. The 55 model featured a 1.1-liter Renault engine and was successful in rallying due to its low weight, spirited engine, and excellent weight distribution. Today, this model is highly uncommon, so seize the opportunity to acquire a rare and enjoyable car.

Condition
-
Mechanical condition
This car is normally well-maintained and has relatively low mileage. It starts and is drivable, but it requires servicing and needs to pass a vehicle inspection as it has been driven very little in the past 15 years.
-
Interior condition
The car is in good overall condition, but the seat upholstery shows signs of use and the door panel trims have dried and need to be replaced or repaired. Apart from that, the interior is remarkably clean and well-maintained.
-
Exterior condition
The body of the car is in very good condition with good paintwork. It appears that one of the fenders has been repainted many years ago. There are some minor paint chips and scratches, as shown in the pictures, but there is no significant rust present.
-
General condition
Fun car in unusually good condition. A car that is easy to develop a liking for, thanks to its model, color, and good condition.

- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends.
