A special Volvo P1800. The P1800 Aston Martin.

 
 By: amanico : December 19th, 2022-16:29
This car will be auctioned at the end of this year. The normal P1800 comes with a Volvo engine, 1, 8 Liter or 2 Liter 4 Cylinders. This one houses an... Aston Martin 4 cylinders 2, 5 liter engine ( 2 cylinders were removed ) developing 151 HP, versus 120 ...  

Wow, basically factory fresh!

I imagine this car will fetch quite a price. Deservedly so!

What a combo!

My pleasure, Filip.

Love the P1800

And this one? any info about its history?

Look at that!

Superb shade of dark green, lovely interior and a very special mechanical combo - a real gem, thanks for sharing something new to me

My pleasure, Vinnie.

Fantastic!

I love discovering gems like this - much appreciated. Combination of two great automakers for a hybrid sensation, looking forward to seeing the results. M

Me too!

Yes, just an idea, a test.

 
 By: amanico : December 19th, 2022-18:00

Interesting...

 
 By: patrick_y : December 19th, 2022-19:22

Funny, I find.

 
 By: amanico : December 19th, 2022-22:41

Wow. Time capsule. “Unpolished”

The green interior is to die for.

I prefer one of each to that combo 😀

 
 By: eklektik : December 19th, 2022-22:16
A cheap way into the prestigious AMOC. I much prefer yours my friend. The fact that it is RHD with an Aston Engine and with swiss plate at the back make a weird combo. Never sold but driven is a bit awkward too. It may go for more as a standard P1800 in e... 

Which other reasons?

Limited space.

 
 By: MCG (Markus) : December 20th, 2022-08:40

Yes, and weight, too, maybe.

Now THAT’S something you don’t see every day.

Would be nice to find a vintage Rolex or JLC (or… anything) in that sort of NOS condition. And I didn’t know that Jensen manufactured a Volvo once upon a time — learned something new, thanks!

Jensen, from 1960 to 1963.

The car looks stunning

 
 By: Jari from Finland : December 20th, 2022-08:56
Like just from the factory. I think it has not many miles on its clock.

So I had to do the research...

 
 By: MilDiver : December 20th, 2022-13:45
So I had to do the research. First, as I like to get into details of what's interest me, and second, the P1800 has been one of my favorite cars long before it became a popular classic (and long time after the Saint.). Add to that the fact that as an owner... 

The body and the interior is amazing

I especially the dashboard in green hue

Superb

I prefer your car :)
