Re: Wanted! Interior bits!

One would do Jim, the other broken one is the driver's rear and as no one can fit behind me that doesn't really matter!

So....the big question, how much ;)

Re: Wanted! Interior bits!

Thanks Jim ;) Looking forward to hearing from you about about the seatbelt clips, I keep getting moaned at by passengers scratching themselves on it when their belt is on. Lesson there? Don't break the bloody thing in the first place! And yes, the person who broke the front passenger one is the bigg...

Wanted! Interior bits!

As the title says really, I'm after a pair of grey seatbelt clip/buckles, you know the bit you actually move on the belt and clip it into place. Anybody got a pair of unbroken ones in grey? Also, I'd like a hazard switch with a working bulb in it and a top centre console bin with no broken/missing t...

Re: 1992 Volvo 480 Turbo Manual S/R For Sale

I have to agree that a grand start is indeed a grand start!
Knowing people on eBay, don't be surprised if you don't get a bid, people seem to be put off bidding on a high starting item but are willing to bid on a low start item with a reserve I find, it's really weird psychology!

Don't sell though bud, 300 miles a week is nothing! Keep on top of the maintenance and you two will be fine.

Re: Poppy the Celebration - AcidicDavey's Turn!!

Not much going on here at the moment. Haven't bothered calling about that 480 Turbo, little money etc. But hey, it's hardly going anywhere! A few days ago with a buddy driving around with the camera we thought we'd pull over for some pics of this old Jag XJ (series II I think?). Been there for as lo...

Re: Starting problems

If you stand on the passenger side of the car and look behind the engine you should see it, it sits above the gearbox so no need to jack it up.

Cupholder Armrest Repaint

Hey guys and gals! Yes I'm one of the lucky ones to have cupholders in my car but the painted surface on the top of the padding is cracking and peeling. Not good. Does anyone know of anything suitable to refurb it? Baring in mind that it's slightly spongey so anything used will need to be 'stretchy!...

Re: Celebration - AcidicDavey's Turn!!

Good ones are a bit more expensive than when that was made! Love wheeler dealers mind, be cool if they did a 480, never going to happen though obviously :D I did have my eye on this example - Looks fooking stunning for the money! But if I do actually end up selling the 480 which is doubtful really I...
