Another Newbie,

Here you can talk about the joy owning a Volvo 480 brings. Non-technical discussions take place here, like what is the difference between an ES and a S version.

heres the black one, has rusty arches - but the car is spot on and for £130 cant complain! only done 80kish too.

I was planning on restoring to original, but have been swayed by the idea of using as track car, so everything that isnt needed has been stripped, arches will get done in next week or so then drop on some 888's and have a play.

Red one is getting special treatment at the moment, and is going back to near original as poss - wheels are going back to standard, ive had engine out and loads done to that. the half leather out of the black was mint so thats gone in the red.
