The Volvo P1800 is the classic car that became known worldwide for being the car of Roger Moore in the television series "The Saint". It was recently introduced by Cyan Racing, the official partner of the luxurious brand Volvo, factory based in Sweden, as the Volvo P1800 Cyan.

This is the construction company's interpretation of this historic model in blue and yellow colors and carbon fiber body. He was recently awarded the Top Gear Retro Hero of the Year Trophy.

In the opinion of the experts of the British magazine, “retro is fashionable in the automotive world. Basically, the old / new is the new / new. With so many reinterpretations of brilliant classic models out there, our Retro Hero of the Year had to be something a little more ... special. And that is the Volvo P1800 Cyan ”.

For Volvo Cars President and CEO Håkan Samuelsson, this iconic classic car is “the most legendary in Volvo's history and an excellent example of Scandinavian design”.
