Volvo 480 Club Europe

To avoid electric shock?

My insurance is £500/yr on my 94' Turbo TPFT+legal/breakdown, with Norwich Union, i have 3yrs no claims. (and no tickets amazingly) It took a word with the supervisor to sort one thing out though...they wanted me to ring them everytime i swapped between uni (shef) and burnleyish (home). In the end ...

Ahh, its true what i hear about you guys from the NL then? Porn, beer and more porn...all day long?

My info centre works for 30 mins a day, after which it freezes. If you turn the ignition back on its blank, and it won't work again until 12:01 the next day. - working up courage for a dash removal....

Sure but if you turn up with porn stars i am out!
I'll never make that mistake again.

Hmm, are you sure theres not a more expensive more complicated way which has less effective results? That seesm far too easy![/quote]

i was just given a fetching green/yellow john deere boiler suit...i can run into your car if you wish!

Doh! and i thought i was doing well owning a 94' turbo at 21. I'd need to have built myself a turbo cabriolet without tools as a fetus to beat you lot.

Just look at all us youngsters driving Volvos... ha

Haha, thats whats known as a "Joke Motor"

Trust me, i owned one.

You do find the interiors seem to preserve well. I have a black leather/patherned black vellour combo and it could be from a three year old car. I also have original fitted volvo mats which attach to the floorpan. Not sure about those heater nobs tho...anything can be done about that? The seats are ...

Kirsty - don't be too ashamed. I'm sure not all of the people who have subwoofers in their boot on this site listen only to classics. You can't justify more than a decent pair of 6x9's for most types of music. (I definately have couple of unmentionable CDs in my car) Hands up (honestly!) who has a e...

Regarding your missing avatar mat...mine went missing from photobucket...wondered if someone is guessing passwords and deleting pictures for a laugh?

Look forward to seeing these doors!

Yes nice interior... very much love the "head unit in the door pocket" look. Doubt max power have thought of that!

Are these things special editions? (wheel)

If vandals did that to my car i'd try and sell it too.

I'd run after them screaming "why couldn't you just have keyed it?"

My god, i've seen better looking Nova's with RS turbo style whaletails. Would like a Hausser however!!! (and don't get me started on Novas)

Hahaha...yes, thankfully i was shown photos and wondered if i was going mad when they looked completely different!

Cheers Mat, no rush.

The previous owner of my turbo removed the turbo badges to reduce the chance of it getting stolen.

I prefer it like that, the back looks less clutered and people don't know its fast until i lose them

mountain bikes...motor bikes i have no experience of. My father has a couple of patents on high density urethane moulding, so i'm a bit sad when it comes to plastics ;) I'm wondering about my shocks, it corners well but is wallowy. I am wondering if thats just compared to my 2 previous (lowered) cars.

- Bring barbeque, beer and baseball bat!

Fantastic! \:)/

Fox, your english is always spot on, but different to how i'd phrase it, - great fun to read!

Elliot Smith is in my car at the moment...maybe i'm boring too huh?
