Volvo 480 Club Europe

After lying up in the garden for over a year i have decided to put my 94 back on the road for the wife. At the time being i am bleming around with it to make sure everything is ok before i hand it over to the boss. I had forgot how nice it is to drive these cars . After lying up for so long i fitted a fresh battery and it started up on the second turn over and every thing works ok only the speedo was acting up but after changing the speedo unit everything is working.I am thinking of keeping it for myself but she will not drive the reliant scimitar that i drive. So here is hoping that the car will keep on working and the boss is happy with it as she usually drives a fiat multipla and she has never driven a car as low as the volvo so time will tell.

Best of luck to all.

Good to hear Stuart, hope it goes well for ye

so you found your speedo... glad another 480 is back on the road

No i have not got a kilo speedo yet. It is running on the mph speedo but i want to change to change it to the kilo as ireland changed to kilo's a few years ago.

You should put up a few photos of the 'garden ornament'
