Volvo and sportiness didnt exactly go hand in hand 50 years ago, although one car with nippy ambitions stood out from the Swedish carmakers lineup. That car was the P1800, which came to change Volvos fortunes in the sports car arena after the resoundingly unsuccessful, fiberglass-bodied P1900. Volvo churned out 39,414 P1800s between 1961 and 1972, in three derivatives: P1800 S, 1800 S - S stood for Sverige or Sweden, and 1800 E - E stood for einspritzung, which means fuel injection in German. These days, you can get a P1800 for as much as 49,500 (around $58,000) on used car websites such as Classic Driver.
