Franco Vigorito

For sale is a very nice, charming Volvo P 1800 S ("The Saint“). The car was built in Sweden in 1965 and first registered in January 1966. The "S" stands for the production that has been relocated from the UK to Sweden since 1965. In the 1960s, it became a style icon as Roger Moore's "company car" in the English TV series "The Saint". Hence his nickname "The Saint".

It is equipped with an 1800 cc, 90 hp, 4 cylinder engine with a 4 speed gearbox plus (working) overdrive. The original seat belts were a real novelty in 1965! It is equipped with very nice sports spoke rims (RSM 42 F) registered in the vehicle registration. The original colour was light blue (colour code 89). The car is right-hand drive. 

The car spent its first 20 years in the UK (Worcester). The car spent its first 20 years in the UK (Worcester). There it was extensively restored and painted in the colour grey. 

I have owned the car for over 20 years (1999) and have enjoyed it a lot.  During this time, I restored and maintained the car very extensively from a technical point of view. Replacement engine, interior restoration (seats, headliner), brakes, doors, shock absorbers, all locks, exhaust, wheel bearings, new tyres, battery, suspension joints, oil cooler, etc. were renewed. Rust spots on load-bearing parts were regularly removed. The car is technically in very good condition and ready to drive.  The documentation is very extensive. The paintwork and chrome parts now need some work, technically/mechanically the car is very good. 

3 weeks ago, the car passed the German MOT (TÜV) and has the driving permit until 2024. The MOT certificate is attached 


in the photos.

History of the "Saint The vehicle was sold from England (Worcester) to Germany (Lower Rhine) in 1988 and restored for approx. 30,000 German Marks (invoices and photos available). After that, it was regularly ridden as an everyday classic. I bought it in 1999 and have always kept it in a garage since then. It was not moved in dirty weather. In the last 20 years, the car has driven approx. 10,000 km. He is currently at Curbs Club in Cologne.

The car has been registered and ready to drive since 1989. It has had a classic car registration since the mid-90s. The vehicle has passed the German MOT (TÜV) every 2 years (documentation complete). 

The engine starts immediately, runs smoothly and is perfectly adjusted by a specialist workshop (Buttkereit in Duisburg). The engine is a replacement engine that was installed around 2004 (unfortunately I no longer have the invoice). The 4-speed gearstick and also the electronic "overdrive" work very well. 2nd gear sometimes slips out of the clutch at idle,  but under throttle it works fine. The engine and gearbox are slightly wet with oil, but there is no significant oil loss. The brakes have been completely renewed in recent years, as have the exhaust, shock absorbers and suspension joints. A completely new set of tyres has only run a few thousand kilometres. The chic spoke rims are an approved optional extra that is entered in the vehicle registration document. The documentation (including a letter from Volvo) is available. The car is fully roadworthy and easily runs 120 km/h over longer distances. 

The interior is regularly maintained or restored. The seat covers were completely repaired and upholstered in approx. 2004. The headlining was redone in 2017. Some of the rubber seals are a little worn out. All locks have been repaired and are functioning. Likewise the doors with the renewed window regulators. The speed indicator works. Oil pressure, rev counter, radio not - this is typical with the P1800. Windscreen wipers, lights and choke are in order.

The paintwork and bodywork require regular touch-ups after more than 30 years. There are a few spots with chipped paint (left driver's door), rust (front left indicator) and other smaller spots where the first rust or scratches are showing. The chrome parts (especially the bumpers) show signs of rust and may need to be replaced in the next few years. The underbody was completely cleaned of rust and sealed in the early 2000s. However, the current MOT report shows incipient rust there - must be observed. Paint and bodywork require "attention". 

Documentation (invoices, restoration and import papers) is mostly available. A maintenance manual for the P1800 is also included.

The car is available for inspection and test drive in Cologne by appointment. In order to avoid later disappointment, it is recommended that you view the vehicle before placing a bid. Please contact Catawiki to arrange an appointment.

The transport should preferably be carried out by the buyer.

Unique Objects

Occasionally, two different bidders may show up in the bidding history with the same bid amount. This occurs when one user's bid is exactly the same as an automatic (maximum) bid placed by another user earlier. Since the auto-bid was placed first, this takes preference. The bidding history will show both bids, with the auto-bid ranked as the higher of the two.


Double bid

It may appear that the same bid has been placed by two different bidders. This can occur if someone places a bid in another currency which is then rounded to the same amount as the previous bid in %{local_currency}.

This can occur for the following reasons:
<p>1. If an opening bid does not meet a lot’s reserve price (hidden minimum), buyers may try outbidding their earlier bid in order to find that lot’s RP.</p>
<p>2. If an auto-bid (user-set maximum bid) is outbid, the bidding log will show the first and final steps of that user's auto-bid in a row. The new highest bid will be shown at the top.</p>

Why is this bidder outbidding him- or herself?
