Thoresby Hall 19th to 22nd June

480dave · Jun 7th, 2009, 15:00

Hi guys,

First post for me this! Hope you can help; does anyone have any further details regarding the Thoresby Hall VOC Rally (19th to 22nd June according to April's Driver)? I'm hoping to go on Sunday 21st June in my 480 (hope the weather is better than today!) What I'm looking for are opening times, admission fees (any discount for VOC members?), what's on etc. My car's not up to BKV or anything like that but thought it'd be good to meet some members and see some great Volvo's. I'm sure the missus will be bored to tears, but I'm really looking forward to it, never been to one before so don't know what to expect. Thanks in advance,

All the best,
Dave

Just looking the the June Driver magazine, you'll not be allowed on the show field without a valid VOC membership card, though I guess you can still go to the show itself. It doesn't say how much entry is for non members though.

I had the idea of arranging a VOC stand at Thoresby. So far, the response has been limited. Myself and two others. So far, it won't be worth setting up a VOC stand as such - but we could park our Volvos side-by-side. I have interest from a 940 Saloon owner, a 240 saloon owner, myself and now you with your 480.

I can be e-mailed directly on

The admission fee is around £6.00.
