"A Volvo in a period-correct orange colour, running perfectly and in top condition both inside and out. The gearbox with overdrive significantly lowers the revs at highway speeds."

Description

The car was brought to Sweden from California in 1990 by a man from Stockholm with the intention of restoring it. However, the restoration never took place, and the car remained unused until 2018, when a man from Jönköping purchased it. He completely stripped the car, had it repainted in its original colour, fitted a new interior, and replaced the three-speed automatic transmission with a manual gearbox with overdrive. Other components were also restored or replaced. The current owner bought the car in 2021 and has driven it very sparingly during the summer months.

Facts about the model

The Volvo P1800, designed by stylist and sailing champion Pelle Petterson, was introduced in 1961. In 1972, the estate version 1800ES was launched. A total of 7,000 units were built during the 1.5 years it was in production. Like the 1800E, it was equipped with the B20E engine with fuel injection and a four-speed gearbox with overdrive, or an automatic transmission. Only a few were sold in Sweden, but sales were much stronger in the USA, where as many as 80 percent of the cars were delivered.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • 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.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
  • For items that have not been collected within 14 days storage costs may be charged.
