Volvo 480 Club Europe

Def Satin Grey



Anyone know where this is now? I sold it about 2 years ago.

I had a 91' model and fitted a newer type, they fit but are physically smaller than the original old one (bodywise), but it fitted and worked a treat.

I had a momo fitted, and although yes it was a bit closer that a normal steering wheel i liked it for that reason, it was about an inch closer if that.

And depending on the Boss, mine had the tooth that allowed it to cancel the indicators as normal.

She's got to go or she will just sit around when new car comes.

Mine had gone in sections so not all the way round the arch, and the inner arch had gone too so managed to use the front wings to make both the inner and outer skin. http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m244/HazardousDukes/217c3aee.jpg http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m244/HazardousDukes/be6f3d9b.jp...

Yeah we used 440 Front arches reversed, so drivers front to passengers rear and it all went in nicely and original.

you may be lucky, look down the back of the engine and make sure the waste gate rod is connected to the turbo, the circlips on these are crap, I've had 2 snap and the rod pop off = no boost, could also be solenoid, crap pipes blah blah.

I'll have to keep my eyes peeled next time, I may 'slow down' for a split second.

opps sorry that would be me. was you in a 480 too? only ever see one white one in mk.

200 views and not one comment lol does that mean i'm like the black sheep of the 480 community haha

Volvo direct but its not cheap, no motor factors stock it as I tried when I took my engine out, lucky I didn't damage the gasket so reused.

its the wrong picture altogether.

one its a turbo engine, 2 its a different colour car.

thought i would bung up some of my current project :) the red 480T has since been transformed to this :) you may have seen it on other sites, but thought it best to actually put it on the 480 website :hopping: the bonnet has now been done, just needs a good clean up and shes done. http://i106.photob...

Just had a brand new replacement front screen fitted for £162 all in!! supplied and fitted :eek: Quotes I was getting I didnt think I would get it sub £300. Anyway AVG on 01582 560050 has done a top job and even went as far as cleaning all surrounding plastics, rust protecting the areas that had s...

Hi Rachel,

I havent been on here for a while so only just noticed your posts.

I had a problem with excessive fumes, turns out the back box had split behind the heat sheild and was pushing the fumes up into the vents in the bottom of the boot (behind the plastic covers) maybe worth a check.

Not sure where to start really, guess this is the best place as any. I have a Vinyl Cutter, and dabble a bit with graphics mainly for websites but thought I would combine the two. Anyway the cutter can cut up to 24" in height and as long as you like, If you have an image, or one in mind (or text) th...
