Vehicle Description
1969 Volvo P1800S The Volvo P1800 is a two passenger front engine,
rear driven sports car manufactured and marketed by Volvo Cars as a
coupe (1961-73). While the P1800 was more of a stylish touring car
rather than a sports car when it came to its speed capabilities,
the P1800 became popular when it was featured as the main car
driven by Roger Moore in the hit television series The Saint which
aired from 1962-1969. The P1800 featured styling by Pietro Frua and
mechanicals derived from Volvo's Amazon/122 series. The car was
marketed as the P1800S,1800E and 1800ES. In 1998, an 1800S was
