Hello Everyone

Wonderful day out, well all 1hr I managed to spend there.

Massive thanks to those who organised it, great venue and perfect end to my summer.

For me I loved seeing and meeting both the cars and their owners. Saw a couple of C70's, stunning S40's as well as a V50 and an immaculate red V70r. I didn't get to meet all the owners but your cars were smart and lovely to look at.

BUT best for me were the 90's, a late K reg 240 Torslander, a beautifully patinated N reg 480 and to top it all a fabulous 940 GLE estate, brilliant!!!!

Dave Pearson, thanks for sorting out the day and making arrangements between the forum and the Air Musem. I didn't get to meet you in person to thank you.

All the best to everyone and hope we get to do it again soon.
Matt

Elvington 10/09/17 meet
 
A very big thank you to all that attended the meet today. It did not help a bad accident on A64 for those traveling on that route. The weather was kind in not much rain however winter is on its way. I hope all who came enjoyed the day. The next meet is 12 November, brrrr! yes even colder so a venue with good car park and indoor activity. Any suggestion welcome I have thought Leeds Armoury, however need to investigate what kind of deal we can get. Get your thinking caps on. Then next year so speak up and I will do my best to sort.
Regards to all and thank you. David:thumbs_up:

Thanks for a great day out, apologies for being so late. Nice to meet some new faces, and see some cool motors. Looking forward to seeing you all again soon 😀.

Sorry I missed what sounds as if it was a good day.

Hope to be right again by November and make the next meet! 480 will be in hibernation by then though...

Best to all

David

Thank you for organising today V50t5dave, it was good to meet a few of you!

Sorry I had to shoot off early, damn work! Sounds like I missed the best of it too!

Might not be able to make the next one, but we'll see!

Hi all!

Thanks for organising Dave.. been a while since back at elvington and what better reason than to look at some Swedish Machines!

I'm not very good with the forum names as to who's who..?

Well, I'm Craig... The Glaswegian pole dancer with the shiny grey C70.. and my son Connor with the C30.
It was nice to meet you all.

I took some pics but rather than try and whack em in here I've posted to the Volvo offers owners Facebook page..
Have a look and tag yourself.
The Facebook post solved the mystery of the red 480.. it was a normal visitor who just decided to park with the other Volvos.. 🤣

Yet another good day out for the Yorkshire section, well done Dave. Leeds Armoury sounds like a good meet for November. Had a good run home via a very nice Italian restaurant (mrs skips idea.. err bribe) Needless to say £85 quid lighter, even being a Lancastrian I had to utter the immortal Yorkshire warcry. HOW MUCH????? Hope to see you all soon. In the mean time happy motoring,:thumbs_up:

For Steve " skippyfox "
 
Hi Steve, you are catching on well to Yorkshire speak. Try this one,
" At least Dick Turpin wore a mask. " works quite well on the recipient it worked for me with Ray Chapman volvo dealer York who thought double the standard main dealer rate was acceptable.
Keep up and soon you might consider moving over the hill that being you have passed the visa test. lol

David " you can take the lad out of Yorkshire but you can not take Yorkshire out of the lad! ":thumbs_up:
