Could you add an American/English translator program to the site for us thickos? :P
It must be noted however, that the FAQ's although for the same cars and engines as the UK, may occasionally differ slightly. If in doubt, query with the rest of the forum.

Good job Bob, the site is coming along great!! :+

When I first bought my 740 I spent a LONG time going through the Brickboard site. It is SOOOO informative!

Thanks

Default RE: 700 Series FAQ

The FAQ was started in the USA for USA spec cars, and has grown, although there is still much there that can apply to other market cars. One of the reason for us hosting this is to try to get an input from owners of UK/European/Other spec cars to add to the info already there.

The FAQ, these Forums and the back issues of the club magazines now offer a great deal of info on most Volvo cars models. It is also all searchable using the web site and forum search facilities.
