Hi Chaps,

I'm polishing up my 940 for the Volvo Owners Club National meet next Sunday. I normally go in my mint 240 but due to the sad turnout of 700 / 900s last time, im taking the daily 940. Who else can make it from the 700/ 900 section next Sunday ?
Its at Hatton Country World, Dark Lane, Hatton, Warwickshire, CV35 8XA from approx 11am till 4pm. Its the best meet of the year for Volvo lovers whether members or not. You dont have to have a show car and having your car judged is only for members and is optional.
However the 700 / 900 line up was woeful compared to the 240s and we need to put a better show on for our section. The Weather is going to be amazing, you will be looking and talking Volvos all afternoon so book it in with your Mrs now, get cleaning your 700 /900 and get down next Sunday.
Who"s coming ?

Work permitting I might get along, in which case the Exxon Valdez will get some exercise and I will pick some people's brains about its general demeanour.

I will be there but most likely taking a 240 this year

Im going to try my best to get to this, as long as its stays dry. My 940 hasn't turned a wheel in anger since the 18th of May

so it would be nice to get back behind the wheel.

It would be really GREAT (for once) on this Sub-Section and/or specific thread to see some pics now of some of the general 700 and 900 motors that attended. Unfortunately I was under tent in Wallingford, Oxon, this weekend. Thanks, Bob.

Ooops, possibly suffering jet lag ...

Sorry too far to travel (and that's another subject). Greatly look forward to seeing your pics as it will make a VERY welcome unknown change to this Sub-Section, and can only help to promote the various Series. Have a great time. Bob.
