We were discussing with a friend of mine if in these sentences occurs inversion:

There you go!

Here you are!

Off you go!

Is there any inversion in the sentences?

Not with pronouns, as you can see. There is inversion with nouns:

There goes the bus.
Here is the computer room.
Off go the runners.
(That one sounds a bit foreced to me.)
 
Thanks, just won a bet :-D
