The dark red scheme was one of its signature colours during its long production life between 1956 and 1970. Our model is based on the Amazon 4-door saloon which sold in excess of 234,000 vehicles before it ceased production. The interior is moulded in black apart from the red 'carpet', dashboard and door tops. The car is registered RPX 344E and dates from 1967.

Oxford Diecast Volvo Amazon Cherry Red – 1:76 Scale
The model, part number 76VA002, is a 1:76 scale replica of the Volvo Amazon 4‑door saloon that was produced between 1956 and 1970. It reproduces the dark cherry red colour scheme that was one of the vehicle’s signature finishes during its production run. The car is registered RPX 344E and is shown as a 1967 example.
The interior is modelled in black with a red carpet, dashboard and door tops, matching the original specification. This diecast version is part of Oxford Automobiles’ range, extending the previously available 1:43 scale model into the smaller 1:76 scale format.
The model represents the period known as British Rail Blue (Pre‑TOPS), reflecting its historical context within British motoring heritage.
