WANTED: 480 1.7 Turbo Manual Gearbox

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...

Basically gearboxes are the same in all model of 480. But they are differences in strength of the materials used to the build of this element. M52 are the weakest gearbox. M59 are the strongest.
