'67 Volvo 1800S for sale - Excellent Condition
Offered for sale, with a heavy heart, is 'Penny' our own 1967 1800S, which we have owned since 2012. The 1800S has had a total of 5 owners (2 within the same family), with the keeper previous to us having owned the car for 30yrs. Collected by myself from Taunton, Somerset the car (click link for chassis no: 19762 ) was bought as a 'barn find' and brought home for her new life to begin. Knowing that a restoration was in order I decided to check the condition of the engine and finding that it was free I managed have her running in less than an hour....Volvo reliability!
Over the course of the next 2yrs the car was fully stripped and restored with invoices for several £0000's, with work including:
With a real eye for detail we really wanted to build something to be proud of and our 1800S attracts a great deal of positive attention; impromptu car meetings in Supermarket carparks, casual chats outside the pub or Post Office are often part of any journey. Sold with a history folder through our ownership, including a copy of Volvo 1800 - The Complete Story, a rare Danbury Mint 1800S model, a selection of spares, custom built removable dash cover in grey (this protects the black leather and is anti glare), custom built booster seat (in matching cream nappa and original seat pattern), indoor car cover and MOT until July 2017. With concours examples now commanding £35-45,000 our Volvo 1800S is in excellent condition, priced sensibly, asking £23995 and ready for 'Penny' to find a loving new owner. 'Penny' is garaged at home, Lincoln, and can be viewed by prior arrangement. Please feel free to PM me should you wish to come and have a look. http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/...pshed8w7i2.jpg http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/...psshajn9ze.jpg http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/...pskhcpi8vz.jpg http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/...ps3jobgkvm.jpg http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/...ps03lyd1bl.jpg http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/...pshj47vynl.jpg http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/...ps06hd4vup.jpg http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/...ps2yli5yzf.jpg http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/...psepnv9t3g.jpg |

Bets that's gonna sting as penny drives off on another adventure without you. Take care Steve |
It'll be sad to see her go, but as she's going to join a stunning collection in the south of Germany I'm delighted with the home she's going to.
|
A pity that, like most of our art, it ended up abroad.
|
Oh my :heart: What a beautiful car. Sorry its going abroad but glad to see it found a new owner
|
Cheers guys. Sad to see her go, but think there will be another at some point, plus the new owner has said I come and take Penny for a spin any time.......I may hold him to that, lol.

Cor blimey! Just doing some homework on the values of recently sold P1800S's and I stumbled across this one at just £23,995.
