For me personally, I love the style, but I'm concerned at my size, I wouldn't fit. I'm not buying/traveling to look at one without being in one in person first.
It was a 1970 1800E. So made in Sweden.

I'm 6'1" with long legs and I was fairly comfortable in it. My one complaint was the driver's seat was good low (possibly due to the seat foam/springs being worn out, leather was good).

I like them

I have had a 1800 amazon 145 245 turbo ect
I should have researched a bit more on specific places to look. However, the underside of the car looked quite good considering age. On the driver's side rocker panel, there was a bit of bubbling at a seam near the front of the door. Also, the current owner said he had the floors redone. The trunk was also in good shape.

Anywhere else I should be looking?
