Volvo 480 Club Europe

Great advert and the car looks superb, certainly one of the best I've seen in a long time. Will miss your updates if you sell it, I enjoyed reading them over the months. I hope you are sure you want to sell it though as it will be hard to find as good an example in the future. If selling on eBay I'd...

LOL, come on Jamesy time to admit you have a Paris Blue addiction and get some help!!

(It's my fave colour too!)

Sorry for the thread revival but noticed that your Black 480 is back on ebay today James, strong money but still looks very good, wondered if your ready to buy it back now?

item number - 221218237280

Thats crap news Jim , typical they manage to damage a 480 with actual good arches!

Theres a small redish/pink box with "lamp control unit" written on it behind the left hand side trim in the boot (near to where the electric aerial is) I'm not sure if this contains switches/relays? perhaps its faulty. It looks like this one on ebay - Item number 251234155002 Does it make the noise ...

Great pics, its nice to see some 440 love, it has to be the cleanest 440 i've seen for a very long time. I had the same model on a H Plate as my second car prior to swapping it for a H plate 480. My 440 was a great car quick, comfy and very underated plus it was only group 7 insurance the same engin...

I've got a minor issue with my GT in that sometimes when it is locked up the rear hatch micro switch will trigger and set off the car alarm/horn even though the hatch itself is closed. I was considering seeing if I could modify/remove the micro switch so that the car thinks the hatch is always close...

Hi I think you'd get more interest if it was MOT'd mate, the car I sold last week on eBay only had a mths MOT left when first listed and i had no interest, i got it MOT'd and had 6 calls in 2 days, selling it easily. It does look like a good example and your probably right it probably would pass an ...

I agree about eBay, i sell quite alot on there, last week I sold my gf's KA and its amazing how many time wasters and chancers there are. It wasn't an expensive car around £600 got several offers of £100 which was less than scrap value. I did eventually sell it though so there are still some genuine...

Noticed your cars back on ebay Drew, take it the sale fell through?

Congrats on the sale, £1000 is a good price, its always sad to see a special car go. I still regret selling my nearly mint Paris Blue Turbo a few years back especially as it was untaxed within a couple of months

Noticed this tonight too, very weird don't see the point of putting it on ebay :S

You can make it up to us by sending us all new rear clusters for free

No problems Kev thanks for keeping me in mind, sure i'll drop on a wheel eventually.

Hi, I'm in Stoke check in regularly to forum still

Hi Kev

Thanks, would you consider splitting them or are you looking to sell them as a set?

cheers

Hi all, I'm looking for a VESA alloy for the GT that i bought at the end of last year. Unfortunately both the front wheels had rim damage one really badly, although neither have proved an MOT failure, so far! I know the VESA's are rare but I'd like to keep it original rather than replace all the whe...

Sorry to hear you've been stung on ebay, i do alot of buying and selling on there too and i'd be interested to know the member name so i can avoid them.

thanks

Ian

Hi My SRS light came on when i swapped my airbag/steering wheel, I reset it by following Jims great guide in the post below to erase the fault codes using the under bonnet diagnostic tool. http://www.volvo-480-europe.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=19326&p=168246&hilit=error+code#p168246 It was a bit ...
