Cleaned up the garage and found some parts you want to sell? Or are you looking for that one part? You can advertise or request just about anything that has to do with the Volvo 480 in here: brochures, towing-hooks, antenna's, etc etc...

Hi!
I bought a brand spanking new one just after christmas. I was driving down the road, and i thought 'ooh, that rear window looks a little dirty, let me give it a quick squirt'.... "Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.....pop'...
Stopped and got out, and the bloody top half (the triangle bit) had just popped off
![Angry :angry:](./images/smilies/angry.gif)
The traffic was too busy to crawl along looking for it, so i came back later when it was quiet...i found it, but it was all squashed and broken. Bugger.
Anybody got a spare?

Cheers for that Stu...
I just presumed Volvo would charge an arm and a leg. I gave them a call and they're sending me one over Monday afternoon at a cost of £7.40.
Got the MOT soon so i was just kinda desperate for one...

Rear washer is not needed for mot. Only need the front washers. I quite like taking the rear washer nozzle off when i go driving with my friends and get in front of them and spray them! A good little water cannon...
