bye

Some things just can't be placed elsewhere. Have you been speeding and got fined? Or spotted a nice new Volvo on the web somewhere? All non-480 messages can be posted in this part of the board.

I'm off from the forum. Decided it's not really a good thing for me anymore. I been off a few times in the past and come back but I feel it's had it's time now. I have no 480 anymore and I just browse and answer questions on here and have nothing left to ask and very little to say about 480's.

The other reason is public now and I have all the answers.

I made some good friends and one of those turned out to be the best friend I could ever wish for! Met alot of people over the years outside of the forum meets. You all know who was there :-) Thank you. Feel free to Email me if I can help with your 480's

If I ever get to build a rwd 480 I'll come back.

seven years 10000+ posts later. Enjoy your funny little volvo's! :D I'm off for a few drinks now.

Thanks for all your posts!

I hope this is not farewell and that the plans for the RWD 480 will be realized.

Cheerio. I suppose the good thing about a free forum is even after you leave 480 ownership, you can pop back every so often to see whats happening ... like me! :D

Congratulations on 10,000+ posts!! :eek:

Catgroom....lol.

He sure is still around.

Hey Martin, we never met but over the years I think we had a good laugh online!

If you are really gone, then best of luck with all of your life.
