Post your 480s' pics!

Here you can talk about the joy owning a Volvo 480 brings. Non-technical discussions take place here, like what is the difference between an ES and a S version.

I'm not sure 'friends' would be the qualification when someone did this to my 480... :shock:

Lol I think it was more of revenge. Guy who did it had a renault 5 and we used to pick it up on the rear arches and move it down the road or around the corner! Unfortunately he has now bought a Rover Metro and it's too rusty on the arches to pick up!

Hi eMmet!
I found pics you your car on svenska480klubben. I'm wonder what mods you've done to this car? And what's the power? As my Swedish isn't good enough even to say" hello" but I found among your posts 220bhp, is it power of your car?

@Emmet Wow,that is yet another breathtaking photo of an equally breathtaking 480.

I cant claim to have ejaculated recently,but its the closest I have come to doing so all weekend!

Never mind,better some ejaculate than no ejaculate! I dont doubt that this will be a problem to understand in any language! :D

Thanks for all the comments! Really appreciate them! :hopping:

I'm going to repaint it very soon though. The red colour that was on one the 850 T5R series. And maybe I'll paint the alloys in titanium color that also were on the same car. I'll return with more ajaculationpictures then! ;)
