Volvo 265 Service car by Editions Atlas

3/6/2018

8 Comments

 
The number eighty-one in the Volvo Collection by Editions Atlas is an ex Volvo 265 Ambulance from 1981/82 which has been transformed into a Volvo Serve car. This model is based on the Volvo 264 Ambulance which has been offered as model N° 56. This Volvo is not a fantasy model. It does exist in the Netherlands. The first owner was the red cross in Aalten in the east of the Netherlands. This car was one of the few cars originally sold in the Netherlands. The red cross had the car in use till the mid nineties. The Dutch Volvo dealerSchmidt-Gemert had an earlier Volvo 265 ambulance model in use as a service wagon which they used for about ten years. This specific model was completely painted Volvo blue. But that car needed a replacement. At the very same time the 265 Ambulance from the Dutch red cross came up for sale and Carlo Schmidt bought it as replacement for their other 265 ambulance. The ambulance from the red cross had at that time a moderate 112.000 Km on the clock. After having bought it Carlo Schmidt had no time and did not want to hurry preparing his new acquired 265. At this time the car was still painted white. Mr Schmidt put it for several years in his storage  since he had no immediate use for it. About ten years ago a good friend of Carlo Schmidt and a Volvo 200 series adept asked him if he would sell the car to him so that he could prepare. it as it is now. He wanted to use it for club purposes. That was the moment where the car received his actual livery. The new owner lost interest after several years of use and he sold it last year. We don't know where the car is situated at the moment. Carlo Schmidt had intended to buy the car back but missed the new sale due to a lack of time as well as other commitments. Please let us know when you should know where the car is today.

De ambulance is van mij geweest en ik heb deze in deze uitvoering opgebouwd. Graag zou ik het model in bezit willen krijgen.
Kunnen jullie aangeven hoe ik deze kan bestellen.
Foto’s als bewijs kan ik jullie toe sturen,
De ambulance heb ik van Carlo gekocht en Zn 15 jaar in bezit gehad en afgelopen jaar verkocht.
Zie graag reactie tegemoet,
Met hartelijke groet Rene

Oh no, not an other dublicate...Why cant they just stop do dublicates that don't even looks like the real car? I Think it's just for the Money and not for us buyers...

How are they thinking? They have not done a 244 Turbo, 850 sedan or even a 262, the one with a 240 body that only was on sale for the american market....

Yeah, I know "just don't buy it then..." if we only had a chans to pick out the cars we want from the Collection..

Totally agree!
Disappointing! The model has even mounted a siren on the roof, what should that be used for on a sevice car?? Stupid as it is not even on the home custom made car.
This may only be interesting for the previous and current owner of full size car.
Come up with nice original models, plenty to choose from!

Hej Janko,
Nice to meet you. Interesting to see that the current owner is also following these news.
This specific model is unfortunately not available in regular stores. It can only be acquired by subscribing to teh Volvo Collection by Editions Atlas. Or you may wait a couple weeks and second hand models should appear on the various auction sites like for instance tradera.com, markplaats.nl, ebay, ...

Ja, det är för jäkligt, förstår inte varför de måste göra så många kopior! Det är ju bara utfyllnad och fantasibilar... Även om detta ska likna (föga) en verklig modell.. Hoppas att de tar sitt förnuft till fånga och ger oss bilar som vi inte fått innan..

Jag mailade Atlas för någon vecka sedan och frågade om de kunde strunta i att sända denna bil till mig men fick som svar att de inte vet vilka som sänds i förväg... pyttsan heller...

850 sedan, 262/4 sedan, philip eller 240 Turbo sedan hade varit riktigt kul dock.
