Hi, the whole event will be row after row of parked Volvos belonging to us! On the VOC stand will be a selection of rare cars -this is organised by Bob as some of the cars are coming by transporter.

Good point. What is this event like? Do all Volvos get the chance to be in an arena?

If we need to sign up, I'll sign now!

Thanks for the info , so what do we do when we arrive ?

Will we be directed to our stand , or is it a 1st come 1st served basis . Last time we went to a show was about 10 years ago in the Capri , then we all met up en-route then parked on our stand at the show . Sorry to many questions , but I seriously dont understand the concept ?

If it's anything like the 2002 event it'll be the world's safest car park - 800 Volvos!

Hi, this isn't a car show - it's a celebration of 80 years of the Volvo car. As people arrive they will just park in the huge car park in front of the Gaydon Museum. There will be a VOC stand, however that will be for the specially presented cars that will have been arranged on the stand.
