1990 VOLVO 780

Volvo 780 Bertone. 1990 – MoT to September 2025 – 57, 000miles (91, 000km).

“It’s the first one I’ve seen other than photos”, “where did you get it from?”, “styling similar to a Maserati Quattroporte” and “cooler than a polar bears nose” Some of the comments you’ll receive when parking up this car.

Tidy example of a very rare car in the UK. I’m a Volvo nut and when I saw one of these a few years ago I was totally smitten so bought this car when it came up for sale earlier this year.

Completely straight, rust free body, starts first time, every time. Burns no oil, loses no water, auto gearbox changes as expected, brakes pull up quickly and square. Four recent tyres on 940 wheels. Electric windows & mirrors (heated), electric seats, small length of stitching has come adrift on the driver’s seat squab and there’s two tiny areas of lacquer peel on the bonnet which look to have been caused by stone chips. Perfectly usable as is and as I have been doing.

Not my wife's favourite, I’ve too many cars anyway so I’ve decided to sell rather than just use it when on my own. An Italian designer touch to an old school solid classic Volvo.

MoT September 2025. 91600 recorded km/ 56, 900 recorded miles.

“Star of the show” at a recent Volvo gathering.

Imported from Japan in 2016 and rust free.
