Volvo 1800 E B20E — 1971

• Mechanical condition

  The engine starts easily, and the clutch engages surprisingly quickly and directly. It probably hasn’t been intentionally adjusted that way, but for a driver who enjoys a sporty feel, it might feel just right. The car’s service and maintenance history is largely unknown, but the current owner's father was a discerning vehicle collector.

• Interior condition

  Original interior in worn condition, with split seams on the driver’s seat and damage to the door panel armrests. Still, the headliner and carpets are in good shape.

• Exterior condition

  The car was repainted at some point, though the current owner doesn’t know exactly when—only that it was before his father bought it in 2006. There’s a bodycoat stripe along the sills, a popular treatment in the 1980s, which might hint at when the bodywork was possibly restored. There are bubbles and blemishes, particularly on the lower right door and the sills. It sits on original 5-spoke ATS wheels with old Michelin tires, while the spare is a so-called “clover” wheel, which was also an original accessory for the 1800E.

• General condition

  Interesting and appealing to many thanks to its electronic fuel injection and status as the second-to-last model year of its type, presented here in currently uninspected, road-going condition.

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.
