  -  Information

The Volvo P1800 is undoubtedly the most elegantly, exquisitely and dynamically designed Volvo of the twentieth century. The Volvo P1800 was designed by Per Petterson who was employed at 'carrosseria Frua' those days.
The Volvo P1800 came onto the market in 1961 as a coupe and was initially built at Jensen’s in England. The P1800 became world-famous for the series of "The Saint" in the 1960s, with Roger Moore as Simon Templar in the leading role.
After building 6000 cars in 1963, production of the P1800 was relocated to Sweden, and the car was then named the P1800 'S'. In 1968 the production of the bodywork also moved to Sweden and the car was named Volvo 1800 S. 
In September 1969, the 1800 E came onto the market with a Bosch fuel injection system, a modified dashboard and had disc brakes all around. The 1800 ES estate /coupe came onto the market in 1971.
