"It’s a lovely-looking Amazon that has undergone extensive renovation work, with receipts exceeding 100,000 SEK. Fully ready to be enjoyed right away by its next owner."

Description

This Amazon is one of the later models fitted with the B20 engine, which — in my opinion — makes a big difference compared to the earlier B18, feeling less stressed at higher speeds.

The car was sold new in Sweden and has had five registered owners. The actual mileage is believed to be 141,359 km — the oldest available inspection report from 2006 shows 35,649 km. The current owner bought the car in 2017 in its present renovated condition and has since driven it lightly as a summer car, always keeping it properly garaged.

The previous owner was a dedicated Volvo enthusiast who worked in quality control at the Pininfarina factory in Uddevalla (where the Volvo C70 was built). He renovated the car extensively between 2012 and 2015, with loads of receipts confirming the work — well over 100,000 SEK. The current owner says it took several attempts to buy the car before finally succeeding in 2017.

In general, everything has been renovated — bodywork, repaint, interior, suspension, brakes, and components around the engine. Included in the sale is a complete set of original wheels with new tires, chrome rings, and hubcaps, plus boxes of extra parts such as lights, indicators, a tow bar, another set of alloy wheels, and more (see pictures).

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The car starts instantly and the engine runs smoothly. On the test drive it felt very stable on the road, with easy gear shifting and strong brakes, giving a super reliable impression. It is currently fitted with nice alloy wheels with good tires, and also comes with a full set of original wheels and tires in excellent condition.

    There are no issues in the engine bay, though it is recommended to replace the cork valve cover gasket, which shows slight dampness — a new gasket kit is included. With just a bit of general tidying in the engine bay, the car could be made to look suer nice.

  • Interior condition:

    interior is super nice and clean, finished in a perfect cream color that looks great with the red exterior. The seats are undamaged and in excellent condition, as are the door cards, rubber floor, and headliner. The only small remark is a 5 cm loose stitch on the rear of the headliner, an easy fix if desired. The dashboard, instruments,

  • Exterior condition:

    This car presents itself beautifully, with straight body panels, good shut lines, and no damage or rust issues. The underbody is solid and undamaged, featuring many newly fitted components such as the exhaust, suspension parts, and bushes. The paintwork is super shiny and clean, with no issues to note, and all the chromework around the car is bright and looks like new.

  • General condition:

    This car looks great and comes with plenty of desirable parts included. I see nothing that needs fixing, and it’s fun to drive as it is. I would only tidy up the engine bay with some simple cleaning and polishing — then it would look perfect.

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.
