S80s in Lytham.

850Will · Apr 24th, 2012, 21:34

Took a drive in the S80 this evening to visit my parents in their caravan and made a detour on my way home through Lytham. This has always been good Volvo territory and today was no exception. I saw 4 S80s in the space of about 10 minutes. First was a silver 53 plate heading out of Lytham towards Preston, then a black 55 plate at the lights near Fairhaven Lake, heading towards St Annes, third was an early (too far ahead to see the age) silver car heading past Fairhaven Lake, also towards St Annes and last, a Ruby Red Pearl (same colour as mine) 03 or 53 plate heading into Lytham from the Preston direction, and I was behind a nice, dark blue, phase 1 V70 too.
Were any of them driven by forum members?

I always make a point of passing Corner Garage, I don't stop as often as used to, always seem too busy these days!

Bought my first Volvo from them, a 740, long gone sadly, had a 460 and a couple of 850s from them too.
