Re: 1986 volvo 480 ES for sale!
Well, if you insist on a break even by not paying taxes... Take in consideration the fact that a 1986 is in a few years no worse investment than a 1995 model. In a few years it will all come down to the amount attention a 480 has had and not per se to the age of the car. A 1995 model may be in a far...

Re: 1986 volvo 480 ES for sale!
It's high, but if the car is in really good condition I can imagine it. 1986 is the only 480-productionyear that will become tax-free in Holland, so compared with any other year you're saving about 320 euros a year. You can even install LPG and drive cheaply. The fabric on the drivers chair seems OK...

You can upload them to one of the many servers that are available for this. As said I have a photobucket.com account. It comes down starting your browser, go to (for instance) photobucket.com to creating an account, log in there, choose "upload images" or something similar and then you can select th...

DRL's are the Daytime Running Lamps and they are integrated in the turn indicator cluster. More to the inside of the car you will find (in a seperate unit) the long-range lamps.

You're supposed to host your own image, what's the URL of the image you're trying to use as avatar?

Re: Avatar question
There are tons of websites out there where you can upload images. I use photobucket.com but that's just one of many. Once uploaded you can enter the URL to the image in your profile so that it's visible as your avatar.
Keep in mind what size is acceptable.

Hi Erik,
I just split this from the 'post 480 pictures thread' - please don't use a topic for support questions.
I also stripped your signature since it was humongous
Happy posting,
Daniel

Re: Post your 480s' pics!
Limit was set to 10 posts before posting external links - reduced it to 5 since I think that's safe enough. So you should be able to post now. If there still are problems please PM a mod/admin or post it in the wastegate. Good luck posting a picture!

Re: hello !
Next time please read forum charters before using a forum. That way you would have known to advertise in the correct section. And that it would be nice to choose a more meaningful topicname rather than just 'hello!'... Already moved it from 'general' to 'advertisements', you're welcome. Good luck se...

Well the BBCode problem has been confirmed after some testing, but it seems to exist only on the announcement forum for standard users. So the effect is minimal

Nope there isn't. It's just that when someone wants to use BBCode like the '[ quote ]' tag they have to clear the checkbox 'disable BBCode' in the post options below the message.Van wrote:There seem to be an issue with the quotes, at least on my screen.

It won't leave since it's rare (a Turbo Collection with moonroof), but to be honest I must say that the 2.0 offers the smoothest ride. The 1.7Turbo i...
