Hello,
My name is Quentin and I'm french. This web site has been built buy a cool belgium guy. The
idea was originally to create a french speaking web site, (just because we both speak french).
I'm officially in charge of the public relation in France.
The english forum as just been opened and we can say that it's already a success. At the
moment we are working on the project of an English version of the site.
In any case, if you have any interesting documents articles commercials about the Volvo 300,
you're more than welcome to send it so we can put it on the site.

people over here don´t speak (or write) french as good as english.

Volvo 300 Mania was born 6 months ago and the website was only in French. But a website in
French wasn't enough to reach the community of Volvo 300 lovers!

Well done Duvel78! And thanks for not forgetting us
non-francophones. :D
When I have done websearches on Volvo 360's all the good looking tech sites seem to be in
Dutch (?), which as a monolingual Australian leaves me lost. :roll:

You're right, it's often in Dutch because the 300 series was mainly born in the Netherlands
(conception, construction) So the attachment to the 300 series is higher there... 340pw

I think this site will gain in popularity because it is in french as
well as english, there is nothing wrong with european langauges, but we english seem a little
reluctant to learn european languages fluently,
A *THUMBS UP* to Duvel to making this all possible, thanks very much!!!
