Volvo 480 Club Europe

Yes Esta, agreed. I had similar in my 440. I had complained to the local council several times about this one particular pot-hole. It was getting bigger and bigger, but due to it's position on the road, it was impossible to miss without 1) mounting the kerb, or 2) driving across the white line. Week...

Just a thought as we haven't had many pics of peoples current 480's, or even ones that have gone. And there are alot of new members, so lets some some pics! I'll kick it off....any chance to post a pic of the 480 (yes, i know i need to let go :lol:). My current fave: http://img.photobucket.com/album...

....on 5th gear! (Dave) Old show, test driving the Z4. The Z4 numberplate is MZZ 4413, so don't know what country it is. Was parked by a dock near a hotel!

Woo hoo!

Not so woo-hoo...as seen before, black 480 with red stripes on scrapheap challenge

Steel Grey ES-looked quite clean, but only caught a glimpse! Had those 'Anteres' alloys, clear front indicators. Reg M9** XNO.

Hi!

Funny, i was just having this conversation with my Dad. I like the Volvo typeface of the badge and the model badge, but they are huge! It's a shame they didn't do badges in the later font like on the facelift 440 & 460's. I didn't like it de-badged (as the first thing i done was whipped them off, ha...

Yep, agreed Kev-top job! You could make some money out of that if you can get them looking that good

Thats so cool....bet that cost a small fortune! Lego is great...

I've seen that Paris Blue one on eBay before. If it is the one, the wheels are Momo arrows correct? And it has the clear rear side reflectors (which led me to think it may have been on here at some point) and did have a full leather interior... Looks quite smart on those wheels!

Bring back some bloody sunshine then!

Have a good 'un...

Possibly a bad earth or something fried inside the amp... But both Ross & Kev's sound feasible too...

Right, nearly a month on... The car has been sorted. Basically, the garage who fitted it fucked up right good and proper. The guys doing the job are good at what they do, but the owner is a twat. Basically, the clutch they put in was not an LUK like my Dad had paid for, but some shitty value clutch....

Actually, smack me and smack me hard. After seeing that Orange one the C30 looks awful. Those rear lights do look awful...thats what happens when you have too much spare time!

Agreed on the rear bumper-it looks like the front bumper of something else. But i could live with that. I love it. Alot of time and effort gone into that. I'm especially liking the tinted front lights/DRLS. I'd like to see some more pictures-the stereo, the interior, the speakers on the doorcards et...

I have to say, in my opinion, Taurus are the best looking 480 wheel, here's the proof ;) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v520/DanThe440Man/My%20480%20Turbo/3a.jpg Thats on a 40mm drop on standard but new shocks. It was a little scrapey on massive speed-bumps, but as it was only me and Shaneeka in ...

Aaaaggggghhhh! I like the rear lights and spoiler! KILL ME NOW :rofl: Actually, to be honest, it looks a bit like a C30 from the rear with the way the lights bulge out of the sides... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v520/DanThe440Man/Random%20Stuff/983ddd45.jpg vs http://img.photobucket.com/albums...

No. I got one for mine from a Paris '93 S with black bumpers. Pointless i thought, but it obviously hadn't seen as much use as it worked perfectly!

Hi guys...

Well, after digesting this information, i'e come to the conclusion that none of the above will fit-but cheers anyway! So, i'm still on the hunt for a '91 pedal...

I think so-somebody correct me if i'm wrong, but i think i recall reading that they changed as they got newer?

Dad bent his testing it out earlier as we're still having clutch issues.

Well done Esta! Maybe a conversion for the future...i wouldn't put it past you to tackle something like that!

As in the actual pedal next to the brake pedal.

It must be from a 1991 480. It's for my Dad's 1991 480 Turbo (Black Manifold).

Let me know!
