Description
The 1800ES first introduced in 1971 had a newly designed rear end compared with the previous versions of the 1800. The roofline was extended and the car had a profile that was more reminiscent of an estate. Self-evidentially the 1800ES had increased luggage capacity to provide extra space for golfing or hunting equipment
The Volvo P1800 is a 2+2, front-engine, rear-drive sports car manufactured and marketed by Volvo between 1961-1973. Originally a coupe (1961–1971), it was altered into a shooting-brake for the duration of its production.
The Volvo P1800 ES is a remarkably usable, practical classic that offers reliability and real confidence, it is after all a Volvo.
This 1973 automatic Volvo P1800 ES originated in Guernsey by its first owner and remained in his ownership for 42 years. The car was laid up in 1998. In the previous few years that it was in circulation the mileage was very low as it was not his main mode of transport and was only used sparingly. The car changed into the previous ownership in 2015 and was restored to the condition of which these pictures show. She comes with its original green logbook, service records, original handbook and spare set of keys
The car has only covered 71000 miles and is an immaculate example of this rare and quirky vehicle.
