Volvo P 1800 ES - dream car not just for fairytale princesses

April 29, 2015 — Bruno von Rotz 109

For just two years from 1971 to 1973, the Swedish manufacturer Volvo built the P 1800 ES, known in Germany as Snow White's coffin because of its glazed rear end. Thanks to its estate car rear, the P 1800, which had been built since 1959, matured into a versatile sports estate, but remained rare due to its high price. This report introduces the P 1800 ES, portrays an example from the last year of construction and shows the sports estate in historical photographs, supplemented by a sound sample.
