Description

The car has had two Swedish owners and was imported from the USA, subsequently being registered in Sweden in 2007. Originally, the car sported a white exterior with a red interior. However, it underwent a comprehensive body renovation that included noticeable work on the inner and outer sills, as well as the boot. Following this, the car received a full repaint in the "Kungsblå code 96" same colour as the P1900 models.

The engine underwent a transformation as well, with the original unit being replaced by a renovated one. Notably, a Mini Cooper S Eaton M45 compressor set at 1.5 bar was installed, accompanied by a Haltech injection fuel management system. This was done in place of the original injection system, which is no longer the most practical or optimal choice in today's context.

The current owner acquired the car after its renovation was completed in 2011. During their ownership, they made some changes, such as swapping the red interior for a very nice original blue interior, including seat covers, door cards, and trims. Additionally "Klöver"-wheels with a 185 profile were added to enhance the car's aesthetics.

As of today, the car maintains its impressive condition across its exterior, interior, and mechanical components. The striking color continues to capture attention. An extra touch of significance comes from a signature in the boot by Pelle Petersson, the designer of the P1800 model.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The brakes have a minor squeak due to limited use this year. A longer drive or quick review should fix it. The car runs and drives smoothly, requiring only general servicing for the foreseeable future. It features appealing Clover wheels and good tires.

  • Interior condition:

    The interior is fresh and inviting, featuring new blue seats and trims. The headrests are black and the headliner has some marks. The dashboard is nice, The clock and oil temp guage need repair and the fuel guage skows 3/4 when full.

  • Exterior condition:

    The bodywork is in a nice condition, displaying a clean and straight appearance without rust problems, except for minor surface rust in the boot. The underbody is tidy, with visible repair work evident on the sills (please refer to pictures). The repaint was executed skillfully, retaining a vibrant and glossy finish. The engine bay and windshield inner post remain white. In terms of minor details, door alignment might benefit from slight adjustment. The chrome elements are bright and appealing, though there are slight signs of oxidation on the bumper and a worn Volvo badge on the bonnet.

  • General condition:

    This car truly catches the eye among a crowd. While not entirely original, it has been renovated to enhance reliability and ease of maintenance, making it an enjoyable and trouble-free driving option that will serve the buyer well for many years to come.
