The Volvo 1800-120 Club Australia Inc. is a National Club for the owners of the Volvo P1800 and P120 cars in Australia. The club is based in Brisbane, Queensland.

The Club was born as a result of the amalgamation of both the 1800 and 120 clubs

The Volvo 1800 Car Owners Association
It was 1986 and it just so happened that a group of enthusiast unknown to each other at the time were busy enjoying their 1800s quietly on their own. Until, by chance, some of them met up at a car 'show and shine' in Brisbane. Allen Edwards, who was restoring his P1800 at the time, always carried the photo album of his 1800 restoration with him. Talk turned to forming a club and getting together with some of the 1800s that had been sighted around Brisbane. And so the Volvo 1800 Car Owners Association was born.

The Volvo 120 Club Australia
The Volvo 120 Club had its first meeting in Brisbane on the .... The club was formed by Wayne Luckman and Vicki Minassian to cater for the growing number of 120 owners, a number of which owned 1800s as well. This club proved to be very popular and in different ways owners of this marque flooded in to join and be part of the club. After a few years it was obvious that there was a lot of duplication with those two clubs, so much so that one year both clubs had the same committee. It didn't take long after that to join the clubs under the one umbrella.
