Volvo 140 Series - 145 Express

145 Express

Volvo produced a high roofed version of the Volvo 145 station wagon known as an Express as a replacement for the Volvo Duett. From the windscreen back the roof was raised by approximately 2 inches (51 mm), and from the B-pillar back it was raised again by about a foot. It was available in 3 configurations: standard station wagon (full glazing, 5 seats with the option of an extra 2 rear-facing seats), fully glazed panel-van with only 2 seats, and panel van with no glass in the rear doors and rear quarter panels. It found a niche market, and several coachbuilder firms later made "Express" versions of the 245. Its rear hatch was made of glass-reinforced plastic.

Famous quotes containing the word express:

    There is nothing so dangerous for anyone who has something to hide as conversation!... A human being, Hastings, cannot resist the opportunity to reveal himself and express his personality which conversation gives him. Every time he will give himself away.
