I've got a 10514 mileage variomatic with s service history full of Volvo Dealer Stamps! And many more besides actually for other cars, with full service history! I've got some little Volvo bottles, erm, oil and something else that came with the variomatic, a boot load of them as Dai says, filled with 'inferior' brand liquids should do the trick! lol You could label every single item of the car with a Volvo part number for when it is time to replace it!? LOL, half of it might not be made anymore, but hey!

Chesh and I have a cunning plan involving buying the crappiest 140/240/740 we can find with an MOT that expires the day after the National. We will then set about denting every panel, stripping some of the paint off and leaving it in a field for several months with a window or two open before finally entering it at the National and leaving it there.

Oh yes, I like this. If there is any money left over in the V3M PayPal account, maybe we could 'invest' it in this way?
