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.

New daily driver!

Post by cranna21 » Fri Oct 07, 2016 11:02 am

so, in a bid to try and save some money for future purchases (namely a house as i'm 21!) i've decided to get rid of my current daily driver, at the moment i have a 2004 fabia vrs 1.9 tdi, with a few mods to it! to purchase this i took out a bit of a bank loan so the idea is, sell fabia (deposit taken) pay off loan, and purchase new cheap run about! the idea being that the monthly payments i'm making currently will now go into an isa!

now i've spent the past month or so looking for that 'perfect cheap daily' and i've found it! in a few weeks i'll be taking ownership of a 1995 Volvo 460 SE 1.9td with 72k on the clock in burgundy metallic! (322??)

havn't got any decent pictures at the moment but will be sure to get them up ASAP, once i get her home the plan is to swap my spax springs and bilstein shocks from my 480 over to it as i think they fit? get a nice set of retro wheels and maybe cut some of the exhaust boxes out for a bit of diesel note!

will post pictures of the 460 + 480 ASAP! :)
