Great , where do's that leave Mac, Dekaydad ,KevGLT and myself

I bet you just let us hang around as your contribution to care in the community. lol
Basically mick, if we let it be known that the true average age here was around 25, we'd never get taken seriously ( :wink: ) by the beardy community, so with the token oldies here (and with mac having more than enough beard to go around!) we increase our credibility!
With you guys having a combined age as over 200, if we count you all as one person we can get our average age up by about 6, putting us in the 30year old + bracket, which is more acceptable to the VOC :P

Well Mick, I'm sorry about this, it really does break my heart. Since the Redline / Calibra debacle, you're not the daddy anymore.

King Redline has abdicated. Long live king Mac, sovereign of volvo300maniacs!

Is there such a thing as a 21 year old Fiesta? Don't they go into auto-rust mode as soon as the warranty expires? :?
