Hello there!

Is anyone up for a visit to York on the 25th of August....??

Cheers

scan of the ticket:

I was wondering about this also - I've got three 400-series Volvos, only 1 is an S/R model...all have a sunroof. The same question was asked on the 480 forum and the general opinion was the same - S/R = sunroof.

But don't Volvo call it a 'moonroof'??

lol jelly suspension, check! Thanks very much

Like I said that 460 is on eBay if you want it just give me a shout (but don't tell any of the 300-series lads you are defecting to FWD)

edit: forgot to add it is an auto, some people don't like them

lol I wasn't trying to set anyone up there sorry Foggy. Yes got an R but it is AWD so shouldn't have any trouble with taking off. Slower through the gears than the FWD cars so I have heard. I'm back at work now mate so the nearest I get to Volvos is typing this, so I won't make it to any events for ...

Spotted! Volvo 360 with roof rack/lights and large radio ariel, in Durham last week.

I was driving a black S70 around the roundabout on Gilesgate bank (junction between A181/A690/Gilesgate), too surprised to wave

I'm guessing..........Nimminz??

Thanks gents! Yes I walked away happy although I was thinking about your 15.7 sec run Chris :wink:. I honestly don't think my V70R could do much better that what the 460 managed! After the 16.04 run I tried one more but bogged it away from the start and thought "that's enough for today" - it was war...

So, I went to down to York last Sunday and managed a 16.04 as my best time...some videos below.... http://youtu.be/XF7Fe5suMKw http://youtu.be/_cwcm81zc2Q It's an auto btw....graceful, no? I may even attempt to spin the wheels next time lol Some other chaps were down there from the VPC forum with 85...

Yep, I was thinking it should reduce the price

That one looks like it has 400-series alloys...? Pollux they are called

no pressure I will be going anyway, even if on my jack, would be nice to get some Volvos along of any sort! and there shouldn't be any mis-matches of bhp either as they have different classes - for example my 460 would be in category 'T', and Chris' Fake with the F7R motah will be category 'C' examp...

Hi Niminz, I have added some info on the 480 forum, here it is copied below... Right, I emailed Chris at York Raceway, and he said he just needs to know numbers a few of weeks before the 26th so can allocate a pitting area. Prices are as follows, all in pounds sorry no pounds sterling symbol on my k...

Hi folks, I am trying to organise a meeting at York Raceway on the 26th of May...anybody up for it? Here is the link to the thread over on the Volvo 480 forum... http://www.volvo-480-europe.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=33727 26-27 MAY - BANK HOL W/E UK SUMMER NATIONALS Sunday 26th • Ultimate RWYB S...

Well, we haven't got Disney Land or even Flamingo Land, so got to flaunt our tourist attractions where we can! And it's f*ck ugly also so suited the car well

I hope Fake is up and running Chris, I remember I saw a post about the prop shaft

Hi again folks! I'm sorry to say that I failed in my attempts to get the back wheels driven as opposed to the front. I called down to Banstead on the way home and the 300-series motor had gone to the dealers son. Good for him, bad for me :( Plus I missed a nice one on eBay not long before this trip....
