Volvo 480 Club Europe

Hello all. I haven't been here for a long time now. I sadly crashed my last 480, which was a lovely Celeb and sold it on to a friend of Soph's I think in France. Looked like it had to be, as he withdrew some money from a cash machine in town here and it had "480" written on it :D I've been driving a...

From inside my first 480, years ago now. Taken with mobile phone as well, came out awesomely artsy-fartsy

Is this the same one that was for sale in Belgium I think not too long ago? Looks nice.

Does it have a body kit of sorts, or is the picture at fault I wonder. I don't remember the body coming out like it looks like it does behind the front wheel at the bottom of the wheelarch?

For future reference: save yourself some money and don't use ebay's extortionate picture hosting. Just put the images you want to use on photobucket or wherever else you want and link to them in the listing. You can use html tags, which are similar to the BBcode on this board. Just use <> brackets i...

Shame. Shame as well about all the cockups at ebay. Hope you can get all your money back from them and at least a good bit of your investment in your GT. Lastly, a shame I don't have the money to buy it off you

from the near-side rear. It sounds like the shockbreaker isn't seated properly and hits the body every time I take a left hand corner. It's ok when going over bumps in a straight line, not so much when going over potholes (can you see a trend here? Yes, roads around here are crap). I've taken it in ...

Lots of awesome looking cars going. But I shall remain strong and not spend money I don't have I think I still have some roller cover clips as well. Let me know if you need them, you can have them, they're only lying there as I don't even have a 480 atm.

Eh, Astra's really not a bad car. Only thing it's got going against it is common-ness. Not sure about 1.4 though. Just get a 2L diesel, you'll feel right at home

Gratzies

Outlook is not your email account though. Outlook is only the interface. What is your email address domain? If it is a hotmail account, martin's suggestion is still the first thing to check. Also, just add Wilten's email address to your address book and that should (theoretically) at least prevent f...

Missed the bit where you'd crashed (and your b'day , happy belated). Enjoy the rebuild and the results

Sorry to hear about layoffs and money-reductions :( I think there's something to be said for totalitarian rule in some cases. If they'd been able to keep this out of the "news", people would have kept spending as before and half the "credit crunch" wouldn't even exist. Then shoot the upper 5% of the...

Err... I refuse to vote if it is about names. Both not exactly my taste, sorry. If it's between the two pictures posted, definitely Bonnie though

I would think with the back seats down it should. I've had one of these Chinese lion heads and one of these drums in together. I find you are generally not limited by space inside the car, but the space available to put stuff in and take it back out again. Especially so if you want to not trash the ...

What, you mean like sunshine 'n stuff? I kinda like that stuff as well

In fact, going on holiday in a week to LA where it is in fact ~20C atm

Excellent pic. Do you have a higher res version for me to forward to my dog-mad GF?

Some very adult planning there for such young'uns

In your car-cleaning obsessions I mean:

I'll give the guy a tenner for the Miura. I could stretch to maybe £20 for the F40. Sheesh...

Haven't had one myself, but one of my collegues has one and the 4 and 7 button just stopped working on it. Apparently, this is a "feature" on these phones which shows itself quite often. No idea why, I have a D900 myself and it's been a brilliant phone all 3 years I've had it so far.

Just some stuff I bought at a Shell petrol station. I'm bad at planning my car fluid's needs
