480 PRE LAUNCH CAR ON EBAY

Cleaned up the garage, found parts laying around, but it turned out to be a complete Volvo 480? If you want to sell your car (480 only) you can place an advert here.

480

I'm sure that there are 480's in Spain already. I'm bidding on the car at the moment. I'm guessing that if I win the bid the current owner will be able to buy a left hand drive 480 already registered in Spain if he so desires. By the way if I win this car then I will be selling the launch car that I already have if anyone would care to express an interest.

It's a manual. I don't know whether they did an auto on the launch cars?

Lost

Post by Ubermuse 480 » Mon Dec 14, 2009 5:14 pm

I didn't win the bid. Good luck to whoever has got this car. I hope they look after it!! Had I won it mine would have been for sale at what it cost me (couple of hundred quid) as I haven't done anything to it yet. I still need the right bumpers and seats/cards for that year if anyone can help. I want to get it p to the same standard as the one I just lost out on. If I can do that for less than a grand then I'll be happy!!

By the way I have an 88 ES in pretty good condition with 56k on it. It's all original and only needs a very small amount of tidying up to get it immaculate. If anyone is interested in it make me an offer. If I sell it I'll put an MOT on it so it can be driven away. If I get any interest from members I'll post some pics. I won't be ebaying this car as quite frankly I don't care whether I sell it or not!! I have four in total (three ES's and a turbo).
