Breaking Green 480 Turbo

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...

Rear lights are not really useable
Neither is the drivers drl.
Passenger headlight hings broke so i replaced it with a metal one, needs some tape around it to make it nice and tight
40mm lowering springs, less than a year old
Good straight alloys, need new tires and fresh paint really
No passenger window motor
All metal pannels have a dent or 2 in.
Front splitter has been patched together with zip ties after it headbutted a low kerb,
Towbar works, and i have the ball for it.
Spare wheel and kit
Interiors clean
Gearbox was smooth, no crunches.
Original radio (no code though)

Let me know what you guys need, offers on all parts :D

I would prefer collection on the bigger and heavier stuff from LU6 2PJ

Cheers

Mark

Hi,

I could do with the front and rear bumper side-mounting-clip-things if you can get 'em off without breaking them?

Cheers,

Ok, cheers.

READ THE HAYNES BOOK OF LIES if you have one on bumper removal!

The clips are quite brittle, so be careful!! ;)

OK if it is in good condition then we have a deal. :)

Actually I also need a red seatbelt push button as one of mine disintegrated a few weeks ago if you have one of those? I can take the whole buckle if it's easier. It's the drivers buckle.

Sticker on it says 30/01/06 i think.
I bought the car 2 years ago and it had been sat for a couple of years, so its fairly recent exhaust really
