Volvo P1800

Volvo P1800 ES, 1972–1973 model years The one with the glass tailgate. Volvo turned its P1800 coupe into a two-door wagon with a frameless, all-glass rear hatch, drawn by in-house designer Jan Wilsgaard, and in Germany and Switzerland it earned the nickname Snow White's coffin. Only 8,077 were built across its two model years before production stopped on June 27, 1973, so it is scarcer than the coupe. With its four-cylinder detuned to 125 bhp it is a relaxed cruiser rather than a sports car. Buy it for that shape and the view through the back: the glass hatch went on to inspire later Volvo designers.
