Default Promotional or Engineering Material for 480 s

Does anyone have any promotional catalogues, paperwork, etc., or engineering material released by Volvo for the 480 series in general, and the 480GT limited edition in particular?

I would like to acquire by purchase (or gift!) original material, or copies, if anyone is willing/able.

Please contact me either through this Forum, or by e-mail to QuentinRQL@aol.com

Hi Tim

As far as I can ascertain the GT model has the same basic spec. as the then current 480ESi 2 litre. However, my (GT) example has the larger wheel (and tyre) option with 15 inch wheels, air con. and no sun roof, full leather upholstery, and I guess all the optional extras came as standard fitment on the GT. I think it was primarily a marketing exercise, as per the later Celebration model, and it was a limited edition of just 250 examples made. I understand it was only available in metallic dark green or metallic burgundy.

Hope this is of interest to you.

Regards,

Quentin (exley)
