"One never ceases to be amazed that there are such fine old cars left in this condition."

Description

A retired couple in Umeå purchased this Volvo in 1972 and cherished it. The car was driven a total of 33,740km throughout the 16 years that the couple used it, or rather solely to and from their cottage outside Umeå. Between journeys the Volvo was always kept in the garage, and in 1988 a niece of one of the pair bought it with a mileage of just 35,000 km, and later parked in an outbuilding.

The current owner purchased the car in 2017, and it has since got a comprehensive start-up service and an authorised inspection/MOT. The car also received a new master cylinder and a brake inspection. The car is mostly in excellent unspoilt original condition, with a potentially repainted left front wing. After delivery, even the protective plastic on the sun visors remains. This Volvo is unspoiled and low-mileage Swedish car that appears to have come straight from the Torslanda production line

    Runs well in engine and gearbox. The battery feels a little tired.

  • Interior condition:

    The interior is in a very nice and unworn original condition.

  • Exterior condition:

    The car has very nice and bright original paint with a scratch mark on the right edge of the back wing and a tiny paint damage under the right rear view mirror, as shown in the images. The paint on the hood appears to be crack. The body is otherwise in excellent shape.

  • General condition:

    An exceptionally nice Volvo in original condition that stands out among today's flashy new cars.

Facts about the model

1972 var den sista årsmodellen för Volvos 140-serie med de mindre och smäckrare kofångarna fram och bak. Nytt för året var infällda dörrhandtag och en träimitation på instrumentpanelen i DL- och GL-modellerna. Denna träimitiation hade lanserats året innan i Volvo 164. Volvo 144 kunde inte längre köpas som basvariant - en potentiell köpare av 4-dörrarsversionen var istället hänvisad till De Luxe. Nytt för 1972 var även den kortare växelspaken med en ny växelspaksknopp och en mittkonsoll ovanför växellådan under instrumentbrädan dit även den elektriska klockan flyttats. Även ratten var ny - ny för Volvos 140-serie, den fyrekrade ratten har tidigare funnits i Amazon innan den försvann 1970. Därutöver försågs samtliga modeller med förvaringsfickor i dörrsidorna plus att en del av reglagen gjordes något plattare och "mjukare". Även nackstöden gjordes om - de blev något smalare.

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