Yes good turnout, the dust was horrendous. Mine was parked in the shade of the autojumble and looked passable Friday night, by Sunday it was dust covered.
Once my 740tic or 760tic are done they'll be a bit more competition. JT's 340 in red looked mint. Some nice earlier cars.
Does anybody know who the limo owner's were as I fancied the Volvo Viking in the seat?

A great weekend good weather good food and entertainment.I managed to get the bits I needed including the under bonnet light and oil filter Now all I need is a near side head light for my late 940 as the reflector is rusty.Well done the organisers for a great event.

I had a really good time yesterday, loved the masses of 7/900 series but was saddened to see so few 300 series and no 360's!

I had my bonnet open for a laugh to show how filthy it was compared to everyone else. I only bought the car 7 days ago and I'm currently physically unable to do any work to it.

Quite a few 900s, some nice 140s too.

A nice set Luke, thanks. Did you take any of the Amazons? My Estate spotted in the far distance but unusually for me I took no pics at all.

That's alright, you know I just double checked and sorry I didn't take any of the amazons! Disappointed with myself as I had a good mooch around them, what can I say I blame the heat for my lapse in concentration.

Yep, I use my V90 (and all the other Volvo estates before it!) as a daily workhorse, just as Volvo intended and most weekends it's loaded up to the roof. I threw a bucket of water over mine before turning up on Sunday - just as well because it was filthy until then

Shame i didn't get there this year as it's 30 years old this year but next year (if memory serves correctly) is the 35th birthday of the 7xx series so that would be good as well.
