Volvo 480 GT 2.0l (1994) For sale £500 ONO

Post by Tanguero » Mon Jan 16, 2012 6:49 pm

Dark green metallic 480 GT
MOT until 19th April 2012.
Tax until end March 2012

The Good:
Good strong runner.
New cam belt with idlers, coil, HT leads and distributor cap all fitted in December 2011.
Pop-up headlights that work reliably.
Good clean genuinely rust free body.
Full "GT patterned" leather seats, in condition "commensurate with age"
Fully functioning "Information Centre"

The Bad:
Speedo does not currently work, dash replaced with a known good one and it still doesn't work so it is likely to be the sensor (around £40 from Volvo I believe) All other dashboard instruments work fine (including the info centre).
Engine vibration, although it is a good strong smooth engine the vibration damper/engine mount has stopped damping and there is an unpleasant vibration when accelerating.
Unknown mileage!

The Ugly
A car park graze on the front offside bumper.
Drivers door trim is a bit wonky and needs new clips.
Gauges from a turbo model were added to the centre console, but only the battery charge gauge is connected.

Offers!

The car is located in Kent, close to Brands Hatch

The car is located in north Kent - not far from Brands Hatch.
Any sensible offer considered.
