SUMMARY

A rare and stylish practical classic that has benefitted from much care and expense in the past.

DESCRIPTION

  • Volvo introduced its final P1800 variant, the 1800ES, in 1972 as a two-door coupé-estate with a frameless, all-glass tailgate and a rear backrest that folded down to create a long flat loading area
  • It was powered by a 1,986cc OHV, four-cylinder with Bosch Fuel Injection offering 124bhp at 6,000rpm mated to a four-speed manual box with overdrive
  • CNR 46K was the subject of an older restoration and was refinished in the comparatively rare colour of Cypress Green (110) with Cognac Brown leather and Tobacco carpets
  • It's supplied with a lovely in-depth history file detailing the care taken of this Swedish rarity
  • Nicely presented and well maintained, this handsome ES would make an excellent addition to any collection of 1970s classics
