Can I come in the 110? Dont currently have a Volvo sadly. Its probably slower than than a 77 245 DL
Of course
I'm also doing an event sticker for all you sticker afficionados (me). Donations toward the costs are always appreciated but I will be handing them out on the day to everyone who takes part in the cruise!

Unfortunately, I'm out. :(
(mentioned here since I'd put a 'like' on the Farcebook post before before the unfortunate change of plan)
Reminder that this is THIS SATURDAY! I was originally going to bring my white 244 but I don't want to go long-distance with the overdrive in its current state, so I will bring the carb turbo 240 instead :) RIP my fuel budget

I'm bringing the 245 which is LH2.4 turbo. It will be like the extreme ends of the Volvo turbo development program for redblocks in the same place!
EFI TURBO v CARB TURBO ULTIMATE SHOWDOWN

What a great day it was! Everything came together nicely, and the turnout was awesome. I need to go through all the photos, check in tomorrow I should have them all uploaded
Awesome day James, thanks for putting it on.
Lol Penny took this great photo

On our way out of Hartley, this is me sitting at the front of the queue, watching my side mirror with a pair of binoculars, watching for the last Volvo to make the right turn onto the GWH so we could all proceed as a group. It totally worked too, I think we had an uninterrupted line of 25 Volvos going down the highway!

I don't want to spam this thread with 875MB of photo data, so photos are available:
