Default hi, new to the forum-here's my pride and joy.....

Hi everyone, i am new to this forum and just wanted to say hi and show you my pride and joy.

i have done alot of work on the old 480 since i got it, and it really is the best car i have ever had...you can't get better than a volvo!!! I love the 480 and every time i flick the headlights up it is so brilliant, but one is broken so only one works...makes a horrible noise as well when i do it.

let me know what you think

things done so far.

1. exhaust drilled to make it sound sporty
2. 1 headlight removed and turned into air filter
3. stickers added
4. tyres changed to yoko 048 racing tyres
5. interior stripped out

let me know what you think.

We don't have any of those over here in the states. I like it though. Only thing I don't get is the exhaust. So you like literally drilled holes in it to change the sound?

Welcome to the forum.

That is an interesting looking Volvo, you must be proud of it. I have not seen one in Japan either.

Cheers

Looks like a Toyota Starlet with a U.S. Ford Capri front cap...

Welcome!
