Hello everyone!

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.

Hello everyone!

Hello everyone, just wanted to say hi to each one of you out there!

Since I'm new here a smaller presentation could be nice. The name is Nicklas, I'm from Sweden and I would like to share some time here with you guys at the forum! Some weeks ago I decided to start renovating my car and my interest for the 480 has just grown for each day. It feels like the time has come to show this wonderful car some love!

(it should be a photo over here but i couldn't post it since i'm new..)

This pic is some years old and the car is not what it used to be after a rough year outside, alone in the dark. The frontspoiler is missing so I'm currently looking for a new one.

Well thats a little something, see you arround ladies and gents!

Cheers from Sweden.

Hejsan hejsan, #055 i svenska klubben ska det vara, dock är det registrerat på morsan då jag precis tagit över bilen från henne, blir väl till att skriva upp sig för egen räkning snart antar jag. Jag hör garanterat av mig om jag behöver hjälp eller har frågor, tack ska du ha.

Har sett din bil på garaget, där även jag finns under namnet frow, inte dum alls om jag får säga det själv :)
