Can't believe the mileage of this one! Looks like it's been loved every day of its life, price is high but it's quite close to classic status now. I love these cars so much, real oddballs. Autotrader link
I did see this one. I love the 480's and always keep an eye out for a one that may take my fancy! But, even with that mileage, i doubt he'll get anywhere near that kind of money for it!
lovely but i agree with chris about the price
Indeed, it's steep to say the least, but he only needs one classic Volvo enthusiast with a tonne of wedge.
that would be you then lmao rich man rob lol
Hehehehe, I wish, saving for a house mate so can't be blowing it all on Volvos (as much as I'd like to have half a dozen or so). Actually, I'm going to start a thread on classics now. ;)
good idae mate there is a few out there and good luck with the house
I want a 480 - have done for a while, but would need to get rid of MR2 first - and its trading a 100% reliable Jap car for a Car renound for electrical faults. The 2.0l ones were apparently way better on the reliability stakes

Ludicrous asking price; still, I suppose it's worth a try, might be an idiot out there. I'd want to see paperwork to back up that mileage claim & if it's genuine it's still worth less than £1000.

Not the best of colours either IMHO...
Im looking for one for get for my mums 60th tho I'm not sure im in the market for a £3k one!!!
[QUOTE=cornclose;178419]Not the best of colours either IMHO...[/QUOTE] behave!!!! white cars are very cool :) :D
White V70/850's are cool. Not keen on a white 480 though... Don't shoot me, it's only my personal opinion! :)

Or violet.
funny you say that as im a big fan of violet of recent have seen a few cars and thought..."Ummm that looks pretty trick"!
Looks just right....
I like those dark colours too. Didn't they do a medium-dark metalic grey for the 480 ? I think that was my fav.
This one?:
Probably.... Although I thought it was a bit darker. Is there another ?
This one? :lol: :
Yeah that's the kiddie... :uglyhamme
:lol:
