How much for...

The Volvo 480 looks good as is, but if you have the desire to give it a more personal look you can find out what others did to their 480 and be inspired.

How much for...

Post by Sophie » Thu Aug 04, 2005 2:01 pm

...a complete theiss bodykit ?

A mate has got one for me, but doesn't know how much he wants for it, and that I should give him a sensible offer. I haven't a clue how much they are worth so if someone could give me an idea, would be cool.

Thanx

hi sophie....

basically you have to think what he would be happy with......
as theres not that many theiss kits around, you would be getting something different!
think what he would be happy with, then take off 100 euros or so, to give you bargaining room.....you could probably come to an agreement somewhere in between that your both happy with.

as a bench mark, i would say a couple of hundred quid isnt far wrong....you'd pay that and more for a crappy bodykit for a punto or someting

Well, without harping on about the 440 kit-one recently sold on eBay for £190 (270 Euros). This was brand new and un-used. Just as rare as any other 400 series kit. As this is quite a rare kit, i don't think 300 Euro's is far off.

Okay...

My mate is only offering it to me, as he knows i've been looking for one ever since i discovered 480's :eek: So I guess I'll offer him about 200euro, massive amount of money for me, but i know he'll keep it to one side untill i can pay for it.

Keep your eyes peeled as there maybe an aftermarket production going on in the future, i'll say no more
