Volvo 480 Club Europe

Zapcity, I think we are somewhat like-minded! Sorry I am not selling ;) but good luck with your search! David With all due respect, you would be nuts to sell! :nuts: I will get there but it may take a while!! Thanks to all for educating a novice. What's the score regarding the digital clock? Is it ...

Shame you can't see from the photos whether that Paris Blue ES has got a traditional clock or a digital one - we all know that that can swing the value by at least £500! And if it's a traditional one, well, I've a spare digital clock which I was keeping for my pension but if the price is right now....

I think it all boils down to what you are looking for, and what you are prepared to pay. The seller asks a price and a buyer is either willing to pay it or not. Certainly when I bought my GT 10 months ago I paid a lot of money for it, a sum that many on here would consider well over the odds in pri...

Thanks David for the info. Always best to ask those who know!! Good point on the age. Perishable items and electrics will always need attention. I don't see any great demand for the non-Celebration, or GT models yet. Cars don't seem to be shifting quickly and I guess the higher prices cars just don'...

Very tidy car on ebay: - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/142186497610?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT As i'm new to the market i'm guessing this is top dollar for a relatively unspecial 480. Its the same price as the white 480ES on car and classic and looks in similar condition....

Cheers Jay. Love the website and cool car/bike collection. Can totally relate with the craziness comments!! I spend countless weekends with my brushes, polishing pads and microfibre cloths detailing cars just for fun. Most people's idea of hell. Never join the Detailing World forum, it's a downward ...

Hi David, Thanks for the reply. Is yours the stunning green GT (Lily) I've seen on the Volvo Forum? If it is its a picture. I love the care and attention you give it. I feel the same way about my cars, that's why I'm happy to wait for the perfect 480. This seems a friendly forum. The Volvo Forum can...

Thanks Martin. I'll take a look.

Thanks Aiden. I'll check them out.

I drive past a flame red Celebration everyday in Suffolk (see spotted section).

Must knock on the door and try my luck!!

After owning many Volvos for the last 20+ years, it's time to scratch the itch. The wife had a brand new silver 480ES back in '88 and I've always wanted another, so as I have an empty garage and I want a new hobby, it's time to invest in a 480. I'm after as good a car as I can get as it will be a ke...

I pass this everyday and look on with envy!

Might have to knock on the door and see if they are interested in selling.

Holding out for a celebration or GT in this colour but no luck yet.
