“In 1986 the Volvo 480ES was launched and played an important role as being the first series produced front wheel drive Volvo Car. The frontal appearance was unique with pop-up headlights and didn’t resemble any previous car we made. Fast forward and this unique vehicle suited well to test new electric ideas as the 480 EV became the real forerunner for our electrification. #TBT #ForEveryonesSafety”

Sadly, there's no goldmine of spare parts....

I had a quick look on the websites they suggested, one definitely seemed familiar and of no use to 480 owners.
Yes it was a nice surprise to see that the 480 isn’t forgotten by the company and they actually replied to my moan about parts.
We keep chipping away at them…
