There have been discussions about the existence of 71 1800ES wagons, hence three years

Some countries title cars based on the year they were sold, Sweden is/was one. My '63 Duett was titled as a '62 when it came over from Sweden for instance. Paperwork indicates it was soldtitled in late '62, the C in the type code, 21134C shows it is actually a '63 model.

This is probably where the "1971" ES myth came from, they were only produced as '72 and '73 models, but some may very well have '71 on their paperwork. Seems to be pervasive, if you look at ebay you'll see Minichamps offers a '71 ES scale model.
