Volvo 480 Bus company

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.

I really rather like the stripes on the side of the green GT. Why didn't I think of having Snazzy's replacement subframe powder coated in electric blue instead of picking boring grey ? O, maybe something to do with the fact I never look under cars :lol:

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let them all find a good home. R4 needs to be a long way off.....

It certainly looks like it and I think (in the absence of my trusty brochure collection) that it must be for 1989...although being it is a UK car I think you mean 311 "Oyster Grey Metallic" ;)
