Contact us today to arrange a viewing and experience the magic of the Volvo 1800 ES for yourself! This stunning 1800 ES has a rich history, beginning with its garage storage from 1983 until its full restoration in 1996. During this meticulous process, its original green paintwork was transformed to a striking opalescent maroon over golden sand. The interior, remarkably, remained completely original. After its restoration was completed in 1999, the car quickly gained recognition, enjoying success at Volvo Owners Club concours events and even being featured by Midsummer Books in their guide to the 1800 ES. We acquired this exceptional vehicle from a dedicated Volvo enthusiast who owned it from 2014. He took immense pride in maintaining its brilliant condition and frequently showcased it at various UK car shows. The 1800 ES is a perfect addition to our historical collection at Bells Motor Group, which boasts over eight classics ranging from the late 1960s to the mid-2000s. Before its previous owner, the car was part of the renowned collection of the late Barbara Morris, an individual highly respected within the Volvo Owners Club and beyond for her extensive array of vehicles, including numerous 1800 ES and P1800s. As of April 2025, this 1800 ES has been thoroughly serviced and received a new 12-month MOT, ensuring it's in prime condition for its next owner.
