Celebrations!!!!

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.

Celebrations!!!!

My PUS passed his MOT straight through no advisories woohoo......blessed are they who spend lots of cash on their 480's (£900 in the last 8 months)

but the day before the MOT the little reflectory thingy that sits in the middle of one of the rear light clusters went and fell out, not a common thing I think, so if anyone has one spare (as if) it would make me ever so much happier :)
