Beschreibung
The current owner acquired the car in 2020 and continued with further improvements. She installed new carpets and added newly manufactured padding to the dashboard. In addition, new bumpers with stylish U.S.-style overriders were fitted, along with a new rear muffler. Since 2020, she has driven the car approximately 3,000 km. Since its restoration, the car has been kept in a heated garage. This is a highly invested-in PV now being offered at auction. The car is being sold due to a change in circumstances.
As far as we’ve been able to trace, the car has always been located in Västerbotten or Norrbotten counties. Over the years, it has had a total of 13 registered owners. The odometer currently shows around 70,000 km, but it may have rolled over once—so the true mileage could be around 170,000 km, although this cannot be confirmed.
The car comes with a spare wheel and jack.
This is a remote auction. All photos and information about the vehicle and its condition have been provided by the owner and other sources. BWA has not inspected the car in person.

Fakten zum Modell
The years during which the Volvo PV 444/544 was produced coincided with a time of rapid development in Sweden. First presented in 1944 and produced all the way until the autumn of 1965, the PV became a central part of life for generations of Swedes. For many families, the PV was their first car.
The model also marked a breakthrough for Volvo on the international stage—most notably becoming a success in the United States.
