Really looking forward to this. VolvoTuning are renowned for the quality of their meetings and I don't think this will be any different. See you there!
Salut! Pookie |
I'll be going, all the way from Salisbury. If anyone else from the south is going, let's convoy. I'll be at the Swede Sport meet the day before at Beaulieu, too. I bet I'll be absolutely knackered come Sunday night.

Another cracking event.
What I like about these events, is not only the cars, but meeting the people and hearing the stories behind why they have that particular vehicle. Here's a few piccies, more to follow: https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4390/...3d653bda_c.jpg 241A9221 by Lawrence Fowler, on Flickr https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4403/...44b1e94f_c.jpg 241A9233-Edit by Lawrence Fowler, on Flickr https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4359/...b6405a41_c.jpg 241A9238-Edit by Lawrence Fowler, on Flickr Lawrence |
Awesome photos Lawrence, you are literally a magician when it comes to these shots....love 'em mate.
VT Gaydon was amazing, another fantastic meet and a credit to everyone that played a part. 192 cars and their owners attended that day & have currently helped to raise £1002+ for Dementia UK.....a breathtaking amount :thumbs_up: |
Gutted that I couldn't make it after all :(
|
Looks like you guys had an amazing day - I wish I could have made this one!
Oh well, always next year! James |
I'd figured there were close on 200 cars there so I wasn't far out.Topside of a grand is good going.The guys[and girls]responsible for putting it on deserve a huge pat on the back,great show and great venue:thumbs_up:Some great cars to look at and then of course there was my old barge to lower the tone:bluegrab:
|
Currently the donations now stand at over £1300.
We've also got an auction running with prizes including Stage 1 & 2 remaps, dyno sessions, laser alignment & servicing....bids for these are already in excess of £700. So over £2000 raised for Dementia UK....awesome stuff from VolvoTuning :thumbs_up: |
