Happy Christmas

Here you can talk about the joy owning a Volvo 480 brings. Non-technical discussions take place here, like what is the difference between an ES and a S version.

Happy Christmas

Post by esta » Tue Dec 23, 2008 6:29 pm

Well, a bit early I guess, but for those going away, just wanted to say to all:

Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year and the best of luck 480-ing in 2009

to all of you and your 480s!

I know this Christmas message caused a lot of controversy when I wished it last year, but to hell with it, this is for those who do enjoy the festive season!! :lol:

Also a special thankyou to everyone who's helped me out over the past year, you know who you are, whether it be to do with Lula or anything else (computers ahem)!

Esta & Lula! ;) xxx

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you to Esta.

You made my X-mas a little more special, thanks for that!

And a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all 480 friends!

Hello Esta and all other forum members,

And what have you done?
Another 480 year over
And a new one just begun

I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young

For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The road is so long

Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

Happy Season Greatings!
