I'm in Dumfries and Galloway in South West Volvoland (although there seems to be a Saab preference locally). I hope to make some worthwhile contributions to the site.

Under orders to have less junk in office so decided hiding in loft was better than getting organised and throwing anything away. And I’m utterly useless and organising photos. I’ll dig them out and get them up as I really regret getting rid of that car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Volvo doesn't look knackered enough. Is the Robin the one they launched into space? Finished painting the Robin recently, I've gone for a matt blue *wall and ceeling paint*. Lots of lacquer and it seems to be holding, so far 😂. The Volvo's not doing too bad. Mechanically it is like new - no issues with anything, no rust, doesn't even leak oil! It has dents on every panel and scratches over the windscreen though. The interior is lovely and supprisingly not worn.

Bonus glimpse of the roof of the Black Skoda Rapide and White Cavalier estate. Looking frosty when the Head gasket went And if you look at the interior the rev counter was fitted in the air vent and the air vent repositioned just below. Shame as a move made me get rid of 3 cars I'd quite happily own now. Austat, inconsistant, AnnoyingPentium and 14 others 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those estates certainly (IMHO) are more desirable then the saloon. Eyersey1234 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rightnider Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Hello all, I've been lurking here for years and think it’s time I contributed. As a serial Ford owner, with an increasing amount of cars from other makes in recent years I plan to start a thread consisting of my past and current fleet. I've started to gather photos from old hard drives and cupboards. Hoping someone will find it interesting!

VP1300 Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Yes of course, would depend on how long said Invacar had been in field, how deep it had sunk and how many stingies were in the way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
