Rolled over 150000 miles in my 480 today... Bought it with 69000 on the clock nearly 7 years ago, drove it regularly to Europe (as far as Hungary and Slovenia sometimes), drove it to work, drove it everywhere really...
Always said that when I'd done 150k in it, I'd get rid of it, but now it's got there, I'd like to drive it 150k more!
Here's to my Volvo 480! Hope there any lots more miles left in it yet!

Re: 150000 Miles
Congrats, mate: looking forward myself in the near future seeing those 'magic' figures on the clock of my '88 ES ... only have now some two thousand odd miles to go, and the engine still spins as sweetly as a nut. In spite of having seen comments in various places i.e. VOC in the U.K. that sparking plugs need to be changed regularly, can't remember when they were last changed; maybe it helps my regularly putting injector cleaning additive in the gas tank.
Cheers.
