Did the Scottish section ever manage to rise from the ashes?

[v6en]

If so, no-one told me ;(

I gather there are a few VOC users who are from Edinburgh/Glasgow area? If anyone would like to meet up somewhere central to us all so that we can put faces to names and cars then pm me and i will arrange something if you like.

Yep had the T4 for a year now. Hope this T5 you're looking at is good or i shall whup your sorry ass baldy ;) only kidding - good to see you :)

If most people are in Edinburgh then we'll probably just meet up there or nearby? so that will save your petrol Migrator :)

Interested to hear of Scottish section of VOC. I'm near Forfar. There used to be a Scottish Volvo Owners Club, they used to attend a lot of the local car shows - never see them now.

There has been a Scottish Section of the Volvo Owners Club for the past two years, with a grand total of around 14 registered members spread throughout Scotland, it was made up mainly from some of the members of the Scottish Volvo Club. I have tried numerous appeals for new members without great success. The section has been advertised on the VOC website and in the Driver magazine, but has never really taken off, mainly, I suspect, to the size of Scotland, and the problem of people travelling long distances to attend car shows and meetings. At the initial meeting held to form the Section nearly FIFTY prospective members turned up and then vanished into the wide blue yonder! The biggest turn out was at the Callander Classic Event in August this year when we had a total of twelve cars!, despite a varied programme of events being advertised in the Driver magazine no one seems to be all that interested.
Anyone out there got any ideas/suggestions ?????

i'm not a Voc member myself, just use the forums a lot. Iain's doing a grand job with his performance meets at the crooked billet in england, just thought it would be a good idea to try a smaller version of that up here, we could meet at a pub/ restaurant, admire the cars and get some grub :)
