eBay watch!

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.

If this sale completes it surely has to be a record.......

I think that's going to be a big "if" though.

Looks like a perfectly reasonable advert, price is OK, good photos (shame about the arch rust but looks manageable if dealt with now).

What really got me was this bit: "No dodgy modern electrics"! What about very dodgy vintage electrics? :lol:

Price is OK? Seriously... Well get me a camera quickly... I'll put my turbo with no rust and less miles on eBay straight away.

GLTease are we talking about the same thing

currently on at £339 6 owners and no mention of mileage or mot sounds a bit dodgy amazed no one has questioned the seller on this.

rusty door and rear arches wouldnt trust the description an inch.

as a parts car looking at £220

as a driver wouldnt touch it without knowing mileage and mot history. If Iwas taking a punt on this one and I am definitely not ! would not go over £395 .

Aw, c'mon Jim - you know that's how you've made your millions! :lol: :wink:

Joking aside, it certainly needs some TLC, poor thing.
