Volvo most beautifull product: The P1800



In 1997 I decided to create a website devoted to classic cars. Volvo was in top of my list, wich included Jaguar, Porshe and others. Probably because my father was for 30 years suplier of portuguese Volvo importer, I always was fan of this car maker. Still remember the PV544, Amazons, 142/4/5 and the exclusive 164.

While surfing the Web for Volvo sites, I secretly dreamed with the idea of owning a classic Volvo. Preferably a more affordable 142/4/5. In that range, the 164 was almost a dream to me. But I never dare to consider owning a P1800. Until I saw the price of these cars in US, very affordable indeed. Problem is that importing one (transport plus all custom taxes) would make it almost impossible.

Meanwhile, a dear cousin, was flirting around for quite a while an early Jensen, fron one of the local Volvo importer owners. I started immediatly focusing on the P1800 issue. When he finaly managed to get his 1961 red Jensen, I was already managing this site (also a now negleted 164 devoted page).

God must have listened my prayers, because I didn't had to wait much to own my P1800S.
