SUMMARY
Built by Bertone, this is one of only 416 Diners Club Limited Versions.
DESCRIPTION
- The relationship between Volvo and the famed Italian design house, Bertone, dates back to the controversial 262 C
- The visually more pleasing 780 benefited from a deeper input from the Carrosserie, which both designed and built the model that was marketed from 1985 to 1990
- Based on the 760 model, but sharing none of its body panels, the coupé was offered with a choice of four engines
- Finished in Red Pearl Metallic, this 1990 example is powered by a 2,849cc Bosch fuel-injected V6 offering 145bhp and 173lb/ft
- This is one of 416 limited editions built for the Japanese market and promoting Diners Club
- Arriving in the UK in September 2016 from Japan, this special coupé has had only two keepers since
- Appears to be in 'garage find' condition but basically it's just dusty
- The indicated mileage is 91,077km (56,593 miles)
- The car is said to drive extremely well, is one of a very limited number produced and was built by Bertone making it a rare find
