Volvo 1800ES

The 1800ES was Volvo's answer to the sporting estate car, featuring the elegant lines of the P1800 coupe with an extended roof and large glass hatchback. Designed by Jan Wilsgaard, it created a new segment of stylish yet practical vehicles. Despite only three years of production, it became one of the most desirable Volvos ever made. The all-glass tailgate and rakish profile made it instantly recognizable and highly collectible today.
