Excellent, thank you Mick :D

I'm down to my last one. I recently parked alongside a G reg '340 Limited Edition' which was almost a double for the Redline. It had the spoiler and wide bump strips (or whatever they're called) on the doors, although the wheels were standard steel ones with plastic trims. Also, there was a single red coachline along the side, instead of the groovy Redline affair. I was going to put my last v3m card on the window when I went back, but it had gone. I suspect the driver may have thought he was seeing double when he went to his car, especially as it was in a pub car park. sm32

Yeah, they are basically rebadged DL's, after they were called just '340's. I think the final options were 340 GL and 340 DL, then 340 GL and 340, and finally 340 GL and 340 Special Edition. Still, a good source for redline bumpers ;)

Is there need for new leaflet. Because i'm stydying somekind IT occupation. And currently we have course about Indesing that is publishing program. And every one of us have to do a exercise which subject everyone can choose what ever they like to do.

So i thouhgt that i could do some sort leaflet for V3M.

So what do you think?

I have done a base for some sort V3M leaflet. And it has few pictures of 300-series Volvos in it.
So Ronnie, SteveP, 340GLT, S60-MBS and others whose picture i have borrowed for my exercise. Thank you for the pictures or if someone doesn't want his/her car to appear in the leaflet or what ever it is going to end up. Let me know so i'll delete them.

If you want to do a flyer for the site then you're more than welcome to.
The logo (like the one in the header) is my own design, and I don't mind it being used for non-profit purposes ;)
I have never used indesign personally, more of an illustrator fan, but I hear it is what a lot of print companies use for magazines and the like.

I certainly have no problem with you doing a flyer, but what ever you do DON'T post it on here, you'll never please some people! COUGH!!!mjCOUGH!!!!

Ah, there is a little problem then if there is so demanding people around. Because i thought to write it in english because if i do it in finnish and try to use it in favour of getting new members because most 300 owners here can't speak english so it is more like wasted time. I'm not going to bin this idea yet. but if you brits could use that leaflet that would be great. Time will tell what kind of leaflet or something like that i'm ending up with.

Indeed, we don't have to have just one leaflet or card design. It's nice to all be singing from the same songsheet so to speak, but as long as they convey the same message and info then all is good! That way people can choose which design they print out or wish to use to pass on the word about V3M! Go for it mate, good luck!

Is there bigger version of that logo. It would look great on front page.

It's in ai at the moment as a vector, so it can be scaled to any size and exported to any format

I'm not sure which formats that program supports. Could you send me copy of that ai format and in jpg format to my email.

I managed to write some kind of intro and bit about troubleshooting. And it is looking promising at this point. And i hope that the one guy who doesn't drive his 340 very much. Likes that leaflet.

So thank you and good night.
