Volvo 1800 sports snapshot:
The Volvo p1800 model was first built in 1961 by Jensen Cars with a production run up to chassis 6000, assembly was then switched to Sweden. The Saint really made the 1800S popular, with three models used for the 60's TV show using white cars with red and later black interiors. The final variant was the fuel injected 1800E plus the shooting brake style 1800ES built from 1971 up until 1973.
