In the late 1950’s Helmer Petterson, the mind behind the successful Volvo PV444, led the engineering team toward constructing the company’s first sportscar. An inherently practical Frua design, the P1800 was made famous on the television series “The Saint”, starring Roger Moore.
This late 1970 1800E (sold new in 1971) has less than 9,000 miles on the clock and features Volvo’s upgraded fuel-injected B20 engine, a four-speed transmission with overdrive and four-wheel disc brakes.
