Volvo 480 Club Europe

Finally got around to stills from the dashcam: James wasn't sure which exit his satnav meant so we had a 480 merry go round https://www.dragonflyjewel.co.uk/480/123.jpg https://www.dragonflyjewel.co.uk/480/124.jpg https://www.dragonflyjewel.co.uk/480/124a.jpg https://www.dragonflyjewel.co.uk/480/127...

Wonderful pictures, a big thank you to Aaron !!

Not actually a 480, something much more rare - a complimentary article about them !

Why is it limited edition? Ah, in the UK the only true limited editions were the GT (limited to 250) and the Celebration (limited to 480). For some reason, neither were badged as Limited Edition. The two tone and also the Paris were special editions, that is an upgraded version of the ES. They are ...

Glad to see you got your forum access sorted - welcome !! Hope you get your car fixed soon. Perhaps we will see you both at a meeting next year. Watch out for the May mobile meet Northampton to Derbyshire.

I think it's the S40 as well - the outer skin of the door is a little thicker than ours, so a narrow strip of bodge tape added to the door will make it a snug fit.

Hello Martin, Nice to know you are still on board ! Fingers crossed for May.

I know a man in Kent doing a break, I'll ask him and pm his details if he has one

Hello Buttercup, welcome to the forum !! Hopefully some more of us will see you and your 480 at a meeting next year.

Our weekend started very badly - on Thursday, I spent the whole day in and out cleaning Lily. Along the line I managed to drop my phone into a bowl of water, so I had to fall back on Al's phone with my sim card in it. Then I decided his 480 sweatshirt needed a wash, so on went my horribly expensive ...

Having spent all day Thursday and this morning cleaning and polishing Lily, we set off for Hampshire at 1pm. Just arrived back home on a breakdown truck with a dead alternator. The plan now is fish and chips, then off up north of Norwich to our rented garage to retrieve Eva (Sven is in the garage wi...

Brilliant!!

Both numbers are in the parts book I have

James perhaps ?

We will look forward to seeing you before and after - hopefully there won't be any v...

. They will send a daily email with listings on various websites.

Hope this helps and you find a good one soon!

Please would everyone planning to come let me know if they are staying for lunch and/or evening meal, and if so how many in their car - just need to give the venues a better idea of numbers. Also good to know if anyone is joining/leaving part way through the day so I know to keep in touch if things ...

Yes, same Alfa in the same museum, I recognise the 'S' logo on the info board (it's the Schlumpf collection). Well spotted !!

After our visit to the 480 meeting in the south of France, I planned a scenic route to Calais via my daughter in Mannheim. We had a few days to lose, so I looked at the route and saw it went through a small place called Mulhouse. Idly wondering if there was anything there worth looking at, I discove...

Bugger!

They've moved the surgery back to 4:30 in the afternoon.

Fingers crossed they move it again and it ends up on Monday !
