Thank you Rob, I’m improving by the day, I’m quite envious of all of your driving adventures, I’ll get there one of these days [emoji4]

 

Can’t wait Chin the car will have a proper treat soon and should be ship shape for spring [emoji272]

 

So many great cars in the Italian job, just in the traffic .

 

Looking forward to meeting you ..

Likewise Rob, when I eventually get back in the driving seat [emoji4]

 

Oh dear here come the 'stories'
That particular car was not ST's....he bought one during the series.Just think about it in the event of an accident/insurance claim FFS.
The Jag company were the one's whom didn't offer their car as they thought,correctly,that they didn't need the exposure whereas Volvo did as it was so expensive they could do with a legup.

"Once asked to name his favourite movie cars, Sir Roger said: 'I have a great affection for the Volvo P1800, as, of course, I owned one as well as used one in the series. It’s a beautiful car and I still drive a Volvo to this day.'

But Sir Roger and The Saint producers had initially wanted to feature a Jaguar E-type.

But Jag were inundated with offers and declined to take part so the P1800, which was first-built at the Jensen Motors factory in the West Midlands before production was switched to Sweden, was used instead."

That is just one quote I could find.

Incorrect seats..later model irrespective of his blurb.
Yep they certainly need P/S if it's going to be riven in the city.

Yep read It but knew most of the story prior.
I had a partial shell of one and was contacted by the 'God' of early Volvo's,Jerry Lister,to see if it or part of it could be used but it didn't happen.
I can probably organise a really good look and drive of one if you like Greg.

 

Thanks. I'll wait till they're $20k again
