Facts about the model
Volvo P1800 is a Swedish sports car classic that was launched in 1960 and began production in 1961. The first cars were built by Jensen Motors in England, but in 1963 production was moved to Gothenburg and the model became the P1800S.
The car used Volvo's proven B18 and later B20 engines, which provided excellent reliability. Between 1971 and 1973, the P1800 ES, a sports estate with a distinctive glass tailgate, was also manufactured.
The P1800 became internationally known through the TV series The Saint, where Roger Moore drove the model as Simon Templar. It is also known for its durability, notably through Irv Gordon's P1800 which was driven over 500,000 km.
Today, the P1800 is a sought-after collector car where original condition, rust-free bodywork, correct drivetrain and documented history are of great importance to its value.
