1995 Celebration £300

Cleaned up the garage, found parts laying around, but it turned out to be a complete Volvo 480? If you want to sell your car (480 only) you can place an advert here.

Looks too good to break, but this has been off the road since 2015. It was sold in October 2020 and is still on sorn. Maybe the current owner realised it was too much of a project ? The MoT history shows it's had a rather hard life.

Hopefully, just the leather seats and instrument cluster was worth that.. If I'd of had the space I would have saved that, fingers crossed someone does save it...

In one pic you can see the Celebration badge but I can't make out the number.
Cheers, Richard.
