So this means that the car in the Middle East pictures on page 1 isn't really your car at all...And this also pretty much answers all of the questions about why your car has its peculiar features that don't tally with it being a Middle East car.

Yep! That's the only mystery now. I'm not really clued up on the early cars, which is why I could benefit from someone with more information and knowledge on these. It sounds like this car was sent out to the UK possibly before the cars went on general sale. From what I understand, no cars went out of the country to start with, not even for promotion...
So then, your car isn't a Middle Eastern Car, it's a:
ORIGINAL LEFT HAND DRIVE UK MAINLAND PROTOTYPE PROMOTIONAL CAR
I estimate the car now to be £40k for it's exclusivity.........
Lol !!
I may have move this thread into a new section called Vin unknown!
And just have the pics and a vin plate!

Not quite a Volvo engine, just some extra Volvo performance which Nick Birch added.
