I don't think we've ever had someone drive from WA before. We had some WA folk at the 2018 show but I think they flew over!

7 days later

Keen! Time to get one of my 240s on the road. Haven't made it to a meet yet after signing up in 2015, now working for myself so I'll be able to swing it this year. I'm about 30 minutes south of Adelaide.

    Stubanger I'm a bit of an infrequent flyer/attendee too.

    I did 2015 and 2018, so am overdue for a visit.

    I brought this in 2015 -

    This in 2018 -

    And I'll bring this one this year -

    Damn I would like to join in, but I'm already locked in for Volvo Victoria Club event in Echuca this year.

    Canberra ACT was definitely my wish-list way back in 2022 after Sawtell.

    I hope 24 Oz Volvo Nat will be the blast, and if there's 2025 on November. I'll be there… ☺️

    I'm debating doing both but being a week apart I may not get to Echuca, though we (DVS Performance Parts) are a sponsor for the Volvo Car Clubs of Australia National Rally this year.
    Accomodation with friends in Canberra is a little hard to pass up as well - it serves as a good excuse to catch up with them.

      AshDVS I could do both but I have to use wisely my annual leave and accumulate for my next 2025 Tassie Travel and 2026 Philippines Travel.

      Not sure what to bring this year.

      In past years?

      Gerringong, 2015 - The Noodle (745 16V)

      Albury, 2017 - Alice the S80 V8 & Larry the 144

      Canberra, 2018 - The 780 Bertone

      Skipped Bathurst 2019 because of the national rally and budget, then there was Covid.... and here we are in 2024.

      I'd like to bring the completed Clyde (74 142 B230 16V+t, but there is still so much to be done.

      So, it may be Reddington this year. Who knows? (I don't, yet...) Image description

        I have entered my 360GLT every year I have attended… not once has it actually made it… 🤣

        Hoping that this is the year it actually makes it to the nationals!

          I’ll be bringing the banana boat, which will hopefully be sporting lots of built engine turbo goodness by then

          I've been out of the 'Volvo' loop for some time but have always remained an owner. My current is an XC60 R Design which I'm pretty stoked with. Is this type of vehicle allowed to enter for the 'show and shine' segment? Cheers

            beema41 welcome back to the fold!
            There's a Show 'n' Shine category to fit every Volvo, so no worries there.
