Volvo 480 Club Europe

I've had the click click nothing fault on my starter off and on for months - usually cured it by locking and unlocking the car door a few times. now if i attempt to start the car without closing the drivers door it starts first time every time (my central locking isn't working so i assume it has som...

I have just been and bought a plastic house so you can count me in -havent a clue how to put it up though - reckon I'll end up sleeping in the back of the car (note to self-must fix water leaks - again)

Mines a nickname I've had since I got my first job in newspapers (Robert Maxwell crooked Mirror owner) real name is Paul but nobody has called me it for years apart from my mother,

I have 1990 ES that I have just put auxiliary gauges in the oil sensor must already have been there because once I connected the wires it works perfectly

I ignored one the next I heard they said (council) that I failed to respond to a letter and fined me another £125 for not giving details - had to go to court this week to get it knocked back to the original £30 - Told them I was poor and could I pay £1 a week the magistrate just laughrd

just fixeds the heater on mine - the matrix was both blocked and leaking looked like it had been leaking and someone put some of that radwel rubbish in

Where are you at - there is one in a scrapyard near me but she is not open till monday she is quite reasonable too never charged me above a tenner for anything - oops I am in Huddersfield
