I know that, I had these things on my 744 TIC. Even managed to get to a local carmagasin with it :rofl: As "this old Volvo thinks hes a Ferrari"

[yellow95]

Somebody need to make a left and right side so that the moose faces forward on both sides. That would be cool.

Nice car. Wish they brought them here! Looks like it has the 850 wheels.

480 came before the 850. But still, the 480 is the only car the Cetus wheels look good on :)

Buy the sticker, you can get a thin sheet of magnet. Put the sticker on the magnetic sheet and cut it out. Tah Dah!

The ferrari pit is the joke. You look at a distance you see a prancing animal and you may think it's a Ferrari wanabe, you look closer and you see a moose and Volvo writen. I have had a lot of laughs (people do get the humor) from these decals with my 700 series. So its no horsepower - its moose power for Volvos.

[2fast4u]

okay....not to be the las laughing jacka** at a party but that is funny

Only if they can't read the word "volvo" on the sticker.

burnnnnnn :lol:

Frank

His name is Dave Barton and he sells both stickers and magnets. But the magnets are not that strong. I would use them for display purposes but not for driving.

[BrickBaller]

Order up some white face gage inserts too from Dave - they really change the look of your instrument panel (for the better).

What the hell is that? Give me a break Im new to volvo's but that thing is pretty cool. Yes I mean the car.

[mikep]

It's a parody of the Ferrari prancing stallion badge (Scuderia Ferrari).

[VolvoPunch]

I like the moose but i think i like that .gif of your car even more.

Its a Volvo 480 turbo. 1,7L renault inline 4 8v turbo engine with modified ECU (boost and ignition) . Lowered 4cm and all round stiffer gas shocks. New brakes off course - 88kW from stock now 115kW. New T25G turbo on the way, so a bit more grunt to it soon. Handles like a sports car. Was way faster on an autoX than a 850 T5R.

Already got some thumbs up from my coworkers who have no idea of the meaning. One realy did take a look form far and tought I've gone insane and added ferrari badges. As soon as he got closer and took a nother look he laughed his ass off. Cos as he sayd its damn funny - featuring moose in stead of a horse :)

[gangster phat]

Thanks Aibast. I never seen one before. I seriously dont think they made it to the US. If they did - they are very few.

[aibast]

they never sold them to the US. The car wa made fot the US market, but if you read the link on 480 history you'll know why.

The moose I believe is a reference to the moose avoidance test that Volvo uses in Sweden. I am unclear on the details. Maybe someone more clear on that part can elaborate.
His name is Dave Barton and he sells both stickers and magnets. But the magnets are not that strong. I would use them for display purposes but not for driving.
I used the magnets on my 960 for a long time and they held on through many a car wash and speed which I will refrain from disclosing in the interest of keeping this thread unlocked.

Maby so, its still a good idea :D

Hmm, but has anyone used these stichers? In our club, some 850 wagons have these :) As there was a british study, that volvo wagons are cars where people most have sex in + volvo is known for its safety.

Nice. Never seen a sticker, but I have heard the phrase.

I want to get a sticker (or preferably a shirt) that says "I drive a Volvo to compensate for my huge penis"

Yep, Dave informed me that the magnets are now an improved, stronger design.
