VOLVO 145/145S/145E ESTATE

5-door 5-seater estate.

The archetypal 'suburban carryall' wagon, used extensively by the 'green welly bridge' and still living on in 240/260 series guise. Mechanically very closely related to the saloons, but with cavernous carrying capacity and legendary long life potential. Big, heavy, hard work to drive and 100mph if you were lucky, but only the big Granada wagon could match it. 2-litres for 1969 and 145E injection model for '72.
