Interesting venue, but the event appears to be targetting the more modern (FWD) owner so sadly not for me.

N.B mind you I wouldn't mind a lap in the 500E !

Not forgetting a huge range of modern models like the C70, C30, S40, S60, V70, S/V50, XC models and Polestars.
This event is being aimed at every owner of a Volvo car, regardless of age, colour or driven wheels!

Get yourself down to the meet and you may be pleasantly surprised to find that your impressions are wrong.

On behalf of the event organisers I do not really understand what more they can do to make people feel included, short of going around the country, kidnapping 700/900 owners and their cars and dragging them along to the events.

I'm open-minded, and as you're speaking on behalf of the event organisers, I'll give it a try.

Can't make the link in post #1 work, but I'd like to register interest, OK it's a FWD facelift C70, but it's red, and says VOLVO in big letters on the front and rear........

Good question, I thought it was by following the link, but I couldn't make that work, so hopefully by posting on here....

Posting on here that you would like to attend should be sufficient if you cannot access the facebook page.
