Volvo - P1800 - Jensen - 1961

With Dutch registration and a Dutch periodic vehicle inspection valid until 3-5-2019. Special and very original Volvo P1800 Jensen model. The first units were only available in 3 colour schemes: red with a white interior, grey with red, or white with red. This one has its original colour combination of white (69) with red upholstery (301). The P1800 differs on many details from the Swedish 1800S models. This vehicle still has all the special Jensen details, such as tachometer up to 5500 rpm, the original interior, the beautiful enamel Volvo emblems and the original Jensen hubcaps, therefore rare. The Volvo was restored in the past with great eye for maintaining originality. The body is rust-free, the paint looks good and the chrome is nice and shiny. The interior is in good condition with beautiful upholstery and carpets and it still has the original headliner and sun visors. The aluminium GT dashboard looks maintained and comes with a period-original Becker radio, "Europe" model. The Volvo has a recent technical service, the fluids and filters were replaced, the brakes and the gearbox were revised and the overdrive works! Includes: spare tyre, jack and instruction booklet What makes this Volvo really special is that it is one of the earliest P1800s to be produced in its first year. Not only that, it is one of the first 500s built at Jensen in West Bromwich, England, and consequently has a 3-digit vehicle identification number (VIN). This P1800 is one of the first 10 units intended as a display model, delivered as an introduction to Dutch Volvo dealers. They would stand on a round platform ready to be supplied to the customer after their order. An interesting collector's item for the enthusiast. We can help and advise you with your transport throughout Europe. The car can be viewed and picked up in Heerhugowaard, the Netherlands.
