Volvo 480ES convertible.

Mar 27th, 2005, 22:15

Hello,
My Dad just showed me a picture of a volvo 480ES 2 seater convertible in a car book. It looked really nice but volvo decided to not to put it into production as they thought it was not volvo. They must of been mad not to of put it into production as it still looked current to our more modern styled car. Has anyone got the prototype or know any more about them? I thought it looked great and even had an electric convertable roof. KYLE123 (James)

Take a trip to C.P.Motors at Polesworth (junction 10 M42) where you will see the prototype made by C.P.Motors which is better than the Volvo prototype. It is very nice and in dark blue and is kept in the showroom. Unfortunately it is not for sale, I have asked.

All the best, Peter.
