Volvo 262 Bertone Coupé V6 — 1980

Design for the USA market was hard to sell in Sweden, Really expensive nearly double the price of a regular 240 back then. Now it’s a hot collector's car.

"Nice example of the last year’s model in good condition both on the outside and inside. Drives well and is well serviced, driven almost 200,000 km, not much for a Volvo, still feels fresh."

"Nice example of the last year’s model in good condition both on the outside and inside. Drives well and is well serviced, driven almost 200,000 km, not much for a Volvo, still feels fresh."

Description

The car came back Sweden from the USA in 1989 and was commissioned in 1990. Driven around in central Sweden with only four actual users since new. Good condition in the bodywork, paint and interior. Non-renovated but has an older repaint and looks like it’s only driven half of it current mileage. Look at the pictures and enjoy its nice condition and all the beautiful and unusual Volvo and Bertone features. Nice color combination with solid black paint and beige leather upholstery.
Just one of this black 262 Coupé was sold two years ago by a Swiss auction house for just over 800.000 SEK. The reason for this was that the car belonged to the famous pop artist David Bowie, then new and was actually Bowie's most favorite car. Fun combination of crazy and talented music artist who privately liked safe Volvo design with Italian luxury and flair

Facts about the model

I mars 1977 stod en ny Volvomodell på bilsalongen i Genevé som redan från start var tänkt som en bil för bara några få. När Volvo 1800ES försvann 1973 saknade Volvo ett riktigt flaggskepp och Jan Wilsgaard fick i uppdrag att skapa en fyrsitsig sportig coupé med basen i den kommande 264-modellen. Frånsett själva det låga kupétaket med den kraftigt vinklade framrutan var allt 264. Eftersom Volvo inte själva hade produktionsresurser lät man Bertone i Turin modifiera karosserna och ansvara för lackeringen. Sammanlagt tillverkades 6 622 vagnar mellan 1977 och 1980 då modellen lades ner. 262 Bertone följde samma utvecklingskurva som övriga 260-serien – vilket bland annat innebar andra bakljus och ny baklucka 1979.
1976 och 1977 tillverkades även en 262 med vanlig tvådörrarskaross. Både 262 och 262C var främst avsedda för amerikanska marknaden.

  • 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.
