I wouldn't call myself an enthusiast, but I often dream of picking up a P1800 ES, 242GT or 245.

Say no more, fellas. Friend of mine has two 1800's for sale cheap, and one of the older, 40's lookin' deals.
I could get prices if you're interested.

Are they P1800's or P1800 ES's? The ES (Estate) being the wagon. And the other one is probably an Amazon.
Not that I'm in the market right now, but what condition and whats he asking? I know where a brace of P1800's (both styles) are in various conditions but they still fetch a decent penny in good shape.

I have been putting an '89 740 turbo wagon back together. My parents always had Volvo wagon's when I was growing up and I have always loved them. My son will be here in December and I figured he would be safer in this than my Honda civic hatchback.

My interest with Volvo's are mostly 240's and earlier. Though the V70 R from the past decade and the C30 have often piqued my interest.
Good luck with the rebuild. If you need parts or information I know a guy. He's a bit of an eccentric, but he knows his Volvo's.

I would absolutely love to have an S60R... beyond that, they are nice, but nothing to write home about.
They do tend to last forever tho...

Yep, IIRC they built it like that so they could dominate the 'car' class or something? And since the portals were Volvo, it was a pretty good match!

I had the pleasure of talking to some of the guys that work on this, at the WEROCK/SCCA deal a couple weeks ago. THIS is the Volvo I want. That or the Corvolvo or whatever it is-- the station wagon with the Vette motor. CORRECTION: it's the Volvette.

I never saw the silver one, but did see an orange one set up with the portals at SEMA about 5 or 6 years ago. Gave some thought to pimpin the wife's, but she said.... Well I can't say what she said, but she didn't like the idea.
Well I can't say what she said, but she didn't like the idea.Did you ever see the V70 with Volvo portals? I've always thought that'd be a sweet ride to drop the kids off to the soccer games.
