My 2.0L ES is now up for sale!
Hello all
I'm sorry to say that i have gone and done a very bad thing, i've bought a new car & it isn't a 480.
It's unforgivable i know, but the 480 is my 1st motor & i still have so many others to experience. So here it is for those who are interested, on autotrader --> http://atsearch.autotrader.co.uk/www/ca ... locale=STF
Also up for sale is my custom made parcel shelf. It is made from thick MDF and is covered with black ICE carpet (the thicker, more expensive sort). It has custom made speaker pods, also carpeted. All i'm asking is £80 including the JBL 6"x9"s which is just to cover what it cost me to make! for pics, here is the link --> http://volvo480.dragons.org.uk/forum/vi ... php?t=9823
Please PM me if you are interested.
I would also like to take this opportunity to say a massive thanks to all the other club members for all the help this forum has provided me. You truly are a great bunch, a bit weird some of you, but great all the same!
Sorry i didn't get the chance to make it to a meet with ya Dan & Steve, hope you get some more Norfolkers on 'ere in the future!
Cheers,
Snail

The supercharger is a bit out of my price range though Martin! & they are only available in auto unless they've been modified and they go for £3000 upwards!
But i will be quite very happy with my purchase though. It has a T-bar roof (woohoo!), Remote locking with alarm and leather seats

No their not, supercharged auto AW11's are actually much rarer than manual gearbox ones.
It just seems like theres always loads of auto's for sale cos no-one wants them!
Enjoy it, ive had 2 AW11's and there easily the best handling car ive ever driven! My mates just bought a supercharger, cant wait to get a go!!

It is indeed! most are rust free due to the mild climate in japan and have low mileages as well. Imports are highly reccomended by me

Not really surprised that u dont know where Norfolk is!!!
It isn't exactly "The Land of Excitement"! Just fields mainly. And a few inbreds, particularly round my way
Here it is on a map! --> http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi? ... le=1000000

guiterfanatic is right of course - in an earlier life I did some sailing up at Snettisham and also visited a place called Swanton Morley.
I now see another motor for sale in Ispwich - is there an evil mist sweeping across the flatlands.

Steve and Snailus!Yo!
Yep Swanton Morley is another not so nice place in Norfolk,similar to where we live!It was home to an army base until about 20ish years back and is now a RAF base.So,home to a few knocked-up chavvy birds and many a fight on a Friday night!All in jest of course!
Snettisham is near Kings Quim!It has the excellent Kim Cairns Classic Cars outfit which has some really pristine cars to see,if you're ever that way people.
This reminds me,for some reason,that there are so many 480s going about in Norfolk.None of them bar Snail,Dan and occcasionally Steve Grundy,are members.Maybe doing some club europe grafitti along the A47 would be a surefire member booster!

That's a great idea mr groom!
But why stop there? why not hunt these other 480 drivers down and then follow them home!
Then we could pounce on them as they get out of their car, and pin them down on the ground and tell them all about 480 club europe!
