Although it never sold there, the 480 was intended for the American market. A lot of accessories, merchandise etc was sent over and occasionally pops up for sale.

Re: Roof bars anyone ?
I've no idea what goes on in the average American mind !
Maybe new old stock from a Volvo dealer that hasn't done a stock take since 1987
Last year I bought a 480 silk scarf from the states, still in the original package.

Re: Roof bars anyone ?
Makes me wonder if some dealers were pre-ordering stuff to "jump the gun" on the arrival of the 480?

It's only a mounting bracket, useless without the matching Thule roof bars...
