S-codes were used to identify the equipment level a car had when it left the factory. Some features listed under these codes were standard in certain markets but optional in others. Unfortunately, Volvo does not have official records of S-codes for the 1800 series in their historical archive.
To understand these codes, we rely on spare parts catalogs and input from 1800S, E, and ES owners.
The list below is not complete, and in some cases, the meaning of a code is based on educated guesses from photos submitted to the 1800 registry.
