Details:
in 1977 Volvo launched one of its more intriguing models, the 262C Coupé. The 262C Coupé was a unique, two-door car coachbuilt in Italy by Bertone, based on the 260 saloon platform. Built mainly to special order, this unique Volvo was a most unusual car in an otherwise bland model range.

The 262C Coupé came with two engines, a 2664cc plus a 2849cc unit, both of which were V6s. Most examples had automatic transmission and all came with air-conditioning. The body looked the same as a regular 260 from the waist downwards, apart from the two doors, although the vinyl covered roof was unique.

Production continued until 1981 when the car was deleted from the Volvo range.

Offered here is a 1979 example of the 2.6 model, which was owned by Mr. Frederick J. Taylor from 1982 to 1999 and by his son, Jonathan R. Taylor, until now. The car has covered a warranted, by the vendor, 76,000 miles from new and is described as being in good condition throughout, with all electrical options in working order.

Finished in silver with a black vinyl roof and black leather interior, the car has been SORNED since 2005 but the vendor is hoping to submit the car for an MoT ahead of the sale date.

The car has the 2664cc V6 engine, which is mated to a 3-speed automatic transmission and is equipped with all of the options associated with this rare model.
