1966 Volvo Amazon Sport
This is a rare and sought after model of a 4-door Amazon with the sports engine, twin carburettors and 86hp. 1966 was the last model year with four doors, which makes this a collector's Amazon with a little more dignity.
The updated front suspension and steering on the Amazon made a big difference to the road characteristics and the standard fitted 3-point belts and the windscreen washer made the model one of the safest on the market.
