    Hello Miklos,

    thank you for your comment! Nice pictures of your cars! The white paint on a 480 is very nice I think, it suits the car very well. Same for your white 850, but in The Netherlands the white version wasn’t very popular because the police also used white 850s.

    The history of the Volvo 400-series will be posted here very soon!

    Best regards,
    Rob

    Greetings!

    I’ve found your site pretty helpful with my 1991 Volvo 460 GLE. I just bought this in November 2012. Recently the timing belt snapped on me while I was driving- very frustrating experience, as you can imagine. I just changed the timing belt (it was NOT as easy as I thought it would be!). When I tried to hand-crank the crankshaft pulley I got about 1/2 a turn and then it stopped cold. So before I go to the trouble of yanking the valve cover to take a look, I’m hoping you can tell me: is the 1991 460 a non-interference engine (which means I *should* be able to just turn the car on, right?) or am I pretty much facing a full replacement on one or more heads/valves?
