Very nice show with a variety of Volvos in every condition you could imagine! Baring in mind, I only take pictures of what 'I like', you get a pretty good idea of things. IPD have a discount on their parts and usually lots of other miscellaneous items for sale pretty cheap. Unfortunately a lot of the used parts private sellers have seem to be odds and ends they've collected over the last year(s) from local junkyards. Half of the stuff I saw this year, I'm pretty sure I saw back in 2010! None the less, a great show for the Volvo enthusiast, if you ask me!

I have just brought the kids to see a movie called Hop which features a blue american 240 estate quite prominantely. It appears to either have blue leather or vinyl seats and looks to be in quite good nick.

This 240 at a all marques classic meet yesterday :



It is a GL with B200e. Interior is beige/goldy velour. Trim is half black half dark brown not the usual 'brittle beige' more 'chocolate brown'. Not seen it before, should've photo'd it really - or is it common and just me who has not seen it before?
It belongs to a friend on the frenchy forum, should be able to request some interior pics if anyone wants?

Not an interior I have seen before either - would be interesting to see some pics.

Spotted a '77 or thereabouts example in caramel/beige/cafe-au-lait, very tidy too, with the red rear side marker lamps, between J24 and J25 Northbound on the M6 at 17:40 today as I was heading south.
