1972 Volvo P1800ES review from North America
"This is one of the sexiest designs ever"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The ignition relay had rusted out and made poor contact.
The transmission fluid leaks. Have not determined if this is a line or a gasket.
General comments?
Better be a people person. This car seems to draw the attention of a lot of different folks. Not too many know what it is. But let them drive around and they will have a smile from ear to ear!
